I see her, In the shadows illuminated by that eternal candle I am drawn to her Looking back, I see the world in chaos. Overrun by corruption, People isolated. I look at my life Insignifigant; Untouched, alone Only my batterd mind to turn to. I see her, In the shadows illuminated by that eternal candle I am drawn to her. The mind becomes, a breeding ground for self-destruction. As the heart weakness, and the soul fades. I move closer to her No reasons to turn back Pain overcomes the essence, and shatters the soul. I see her, In the shadows illuminated by that eternal candle I am drawn to her. I walk forward, on the dark road; alone. Light behind me, only the calming darkness in front. Flashbacks, embarassment siezes my being All the memories of forlornness demand the capitulation of my sanity I see her, in the shadows illuminated by that eternal candle I am drawn to her My body and soul move closer to the sister of hades; Death A welcoming site I leave everything behind ready to cross over, to leave the agony, the agony of Isloation I see her In the shadows illuminanted by that eternal candle I am drawn to her Halfway, Between realities My name is called By a gathering New faces, unfamiliar yet captivating Wanting my return and offerings of understandment and true friendship I see her fading back into the shadows Moving away from me I am still drawn In the middle, I move toward Death The gathering expresses their concern Four voices rise above, Turning back I see the four yearning for my return My heart and soul weep happiness, at last I see her fading back into the shadows Moving away from me I no longer desire I abandon my search for Death, and go back 1 Pain begining to leave as I look into their eyes and see joy The gathering restore my soul and mind but the four restore my vacant heart; making it whole and making my pain vanish into the shadows. The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship." --Ralph Waldo Emerson |

Dhuron~ This made me feel sad.....I'm not even sure why. I guess I wonder if he was happy with his choice? Or sad that he had the choice to make.....-SEA |
