5 The light, it cannot reach me here.
|
rlm@2
|
6 It's rays don't go this far.
|
rlm@2
|
7 Even they turn back before the darkness devours them.
|
rlm@2
|
8 Yet I find myself lost here,
|
rlm@2
|
9 on these cold and desolate plains.
|
rlm@2
|
10 I don't know where I am nor where I'm going.
|
rlm@2
|
11 Darkness stretches outwards, an infinite expanse of loneliness,
|
rlm@2
|
12 blessed only with the solace of teardrops.
|
rlm@2
|
13
|
rlm@2
|
14 I am alone here,
|
rlm@2
|
15 Lost where you can never find me.
|
rlm@2
|
16 I cannot find my way,
|
rlm@2
|
17 begging each shadow for help.
|
rlm@2
|
18 But my pleas fall on deaf ears and I must continue forward.
|
rlm@2
|
19 Alone.
|
rlm@2
|
20
|
rlm@2
|
21 This well traveled route of agony and despair,
|
rlm@2
|
22 it knows me well by now.
|
rlm@2
|
23 Always harkening me back to it's haunting paths and dark mazes.
|
rlm@2
|
24 I am lost to it,
|
rlm@2
|
25 unable to escape it's grasp upon me.
|
rlm@2
|
26 I always pass the same sign,
|
rlm@2
|
27 always cross the same frozen stream.
|
rlm@2
|
28 'You are nowhere,'
|
rlm@2
|
29 the sign states in letters the color of blood.
|
rlm@2
|
30 And I shiver at the sight,
|
rlm@2
|
31 but continue forwards into the encompassing darkness.
|
rlm@2
|
32 "Where am I?" I ask.
|
rlm@2
|
33 But there is no answer.
|
rlm@2
|
34 "Who am I?" I plead.
|
rlm@2
|
35 But silence answers my call.
|
rlm@2
|
36 "Please save me..." I whimper.
|
rlm@2
|
37 But no one comes for me.
|
rlm@2
|
38
|
rlm@2
|
39 So I cry.
|
rlm@2
|
40
|
rlm@2
|
41 I finally collapse along the winding path,
|
rlm@2
|
42 my tear soaked dress fluttering around me as the wind picks up.
|
rlm@2
|
43 I sob bitter tears,
|
rlm@2
|
44 cursing my lost and lonely path,
|
rlm@2
|
45 praying for the light to illuminate the darkness.
|
rlm@2
|
46 But no one heeds my calls.
|
rlm@2
|
47 And I am left in the shadows to fend for myself.
|
rlm@2
|
48 To find my path when there is none.
|
rlm@2
|
49 To save myself from the shadows when I know that I can't.
|
rlm@2
|
50 So I cry.
|
rlm@2
|
51 Pounding my fists into the wet dirt of my lonely path,
|
rlm@2
|
52 I question whether it needs me upon it anymore.
|
rlm@2
|
53 Perhaps it is time I surrender,
|
rlm@2
|
54 that I give in to the inevitablity that I will forever be lost.
|
rlm@2
|
55 That my path will never take me anywhere but through these cold and dark shadows.
|
rlm@2
|
56 I laugh into the night sky,
|
rlm@2
|
57 the thunder echoing the madness that plays with my hair.
|
rlm@2
|
58 If only I give up,
|
rlm@2
|
59 I will be free.
|
rlm@2
|
60 I will be free...
|
rlm@2
|
61
|
rlm@2
|
62 But I cannot give up.
|
rlm@2
|
63 Not yet, at any right.
|
rlm@2
|
64 I have much left to tend to.
|
rlm@2
|
65 I have sights left unseen.
|
rlm@2
|
66 Perhaps I will never see them.
|
rlm@2
|
67 But I won't know if I don't try.
|
rlm@2
|
68 I struggle to my bare feet,
|
rlm@2
|
69 stumbling forward into the cold woods once more.
|
rlm@2
|
70 I know that I am lost.
|
rlm@2
|
71 But I pray that I will be found.
