First I am a sparrow,
Free,
flying above the waves.

The deluge is breaking my wings,
the swell is crushing me,
I am the waves.

I am writhing and tearing at the sky,
ravenous,
chasing the wind.

The ocean is devouring me,
Swallowed,
I am the abyss.

Plodding the deep,
crawling,
hell is rumbling.

Ominous door is opening,
drawing me,
I am Hades.

I am trembling through icy halls,
laughing at me,
the frost is eating my skin.

Hallowed door is opening,
beckoning me,
I am heaven.

Radiant and amber,
fading away,
the veil is torn.

I am all,
a sparrow,
flying above the waves.
