-=Into the Mist=-


I lie awake tonight..
Thoughts come to me like a dream
Yet open are my eyes, yet i see you delicately
moving within my soul, so close yet to touch
stirring the river bed of emotion that i long since
settled beneath their darkened waters
Why have you come to me now?
Where have you brought me tonight?
When my eyes betray me in the dark sweet sleep of night,
When my breath comes to me ragged and tormented
I have buried you inside me too many times
I have lost all thoughts of you until now, as
you haunt me, whispering your own torments that so
parallel mine i cannot breathe, for fear of losing you
yet again, the stab within my heart pumping new blood
into old wounds, icy fingers grasp at the corners of my
mind piercing me, aching for warmth yet again, i know
your soul, and you mine.
My heart begged for you once, my soul died when you
turned from me, into the mist. The hand that bore my
crown of agony was set apon my head by your hand.
Yet you weep.
Yet your soul cries out clearly, as a thousand screams
bearing one voice, calling for me.
The night lends no comfort.
For it is then that you are closest..and i cannot sleep.
So close yet to reveal your own pain to me,
but only far enough that i will never find you
In the darkened waters of my soul.
