Such a soul that wanders the nights, lost and free, afraid but careless.
Oh such a soul that wanders those dark alleys of the mind.
That crawls on blood stained knees through the endless sands of time.
Such a soul that wanders and stumbles.
Stumbles but never trips.
It finds its footing now lost however and must choose a different path.
Will it veer to the left and take the lit path?
Or shall it veer right and brave the midnight blue path that is so cleverly overlooked?
Either path it takes, it muses, shall have an outcome of greater or lesser value and worth than it had expected.
Never the less, it veers right, taking that path so shadowed by dark ambition and heretic desire.
Such a soul that wanders now on that twisting, winding path, never finding rest though always within shelter.
Such a soul that wanders now and is condemned by all that should set eye upon it.
It has veered onto the path less traveled.
It has broken away from the majority and decided its own fate.
It will take control and rule its own direction.
Such a soul that wanders the nights, lost and free, afraid but careless.
Such a soul that wanders those dark alleys of the mind.
That crawls on blood stained knees through the endless sands of time.
Such a soul that wanders and will NEVER cease.
Such a soul that is...you and I.

Dark, yes, but not without a spark of hope.

"It will take control and rule its own direction."
