Arousing eyes of amber glow
as contradiction's flames ignite.
Accepting waters fail to show,
yet overflow in dreams at night.
The hands of credence hold the pail;
they strain to douse the growing doubt.
No words of comfort shall prevail
until the blaze is fully out.
A channel dug to reach the well
will harness comprehension's flow,
as streams of recognition swell
denial's flame declines to grow.
