I read a couple of the Round 1 entries and there were many great ones!
Here's mine:
Round 1
"Stillness"
Standing in the distance
With nothing left to say
And in one lonely instant
I beg the gods to make you stay
Gone are sparks, settled dust
You’re pleading for the rain
There is no love, and no trust
Just more of the same
CHORUS:
There’s only stillness
Pleading forgiveness
Life is aimless
Life is stillness
