Wandering alone in the woods of eternity
I find myself lost in the labyrinth
Occasionally, there is a marker here or there
But alas! i know not, i want to go where
My soul is lost in the darkness that surrounds
It has forgotten what light is
It takes steps, directionless
These footsteps, they echo back in the void
My soul has wandered for ages now, one lifetime to another
In search of a place it can call home
Its quest seems never ending, with nothing in sight
I thought this will complete me
I worked hard and achieved it
But it seems meaningless now
like a plant that doesn't grow even after sown
I need to keep looking
Keep searching while i walk
I might stumble across something that would heal the wounds
Made by repeated falling on the ground
The pain now seems addictive or maybe i have numbed
Tears flow down and flood my life
I know myself i will need to wipe
From somewhere a tear sneaks into the wound
It burns I yell with no one to hear
Its time. I look at the shining knob
Still sobbing, reluctantly, I open the door
I step into blinding light
Ah! there is my family, my friend and my enemy
Together they welcome me back
To the Illusion they call Life..!!!
