Mass of Broken Halos

We crossed the line between the stars

At speeds the soul was not designed

We moved too fast for doubt or fear

Believing truth was always kind

I felt the fracture in my core

A tremor splitting what I knew

Between your light, so absolute

And questions clawing their way through

I flew too close to what you fear

I saw the flaw you call divine

If heaven needs a perfect lie

Then maybe heaven isn't mine

You questioned light instead of night

You cut the wing that kept you whole

The fall begins inside the mind

Long before the loss of control

Hold the line, don't disappear

I don't know which voice I hear

I watched your halo start to crack

Not from the dark, but from the strain

I tried to carry both the fire

And all the weight of endless blame

No enemy could make me fall

Like loving truth and doubting all

I wasn't born to kneel or reign

I only asked why we must bleed

If questioning the light is sin

Then write my name beneath the creed

You were not wrong, only too wide

Too full of fire to stay confined

Some wings are torn not by the fall

But by the sky they leave behind

I fall through silence, not through flame

I call your name, it sounds the same

No hell below, no heaven above

Just broken halos, and still love
