The Cistern from Restoration by Denominate

In these barren lands
A seeker searches to understand
To find The Source, where all is pure

Stagnating with the passing of time
Straying further away from the seekers mind
This cistern of discarded thoughts
In which dwells those waters, once so clear

A Cistern for lost thoughts
A Cistern for forgotten songs

And like a flash of light
Penetrating the seekers mind

Adhered to the thought of a genuine thought,

He burrows further down
In to the soil and the earth
With a single-minded purpose
"This time it's the one"

Fingers bleeding and body cracked

In pursuit of noble goals
And a quest for something more
Whips himself into fervor
Without realizing the error

This pattern established before
First struck by urge for truth
Then lays down his hands and stops
Another one for the cistern

Far, so far

These forgotten words
A fragment with no force, no truth
To carry through, frozen in time
These barren lands craving water from the cistern
Hoping for those fruitful rains to come once more
