Equivalence

Ashes, memories of an old life
That cost a high price to recover
I came and saw what few have seen—
Unwritten truths

Beyond our understanding
Of the infinity you know?
Just part of an endless cycle
We and the universe, both like this

Equivalent exchanges
(Accept my past and its consequences)
Complexity and beauty
(Embrace my future with an open mind)

What was left behind—
(Was left behind)
Its cause and effect shape what is now
(What's is now, what is now)
The pieces now gone
Consumed by belief in tomorrow
