-sigh-
(moonlight sonata plays in the background)
-mumbles to self-
I don't know what's become of me,
Am I lost in this earthly realm I see?
I want to run – I want to flee,
I want to find the peace filled key.
-screams into the night-
My soul, my heart, my mind-
Traces of chaotic glimpses I find!
Why, oh, why, must this be?
This wretched darkness that's taken over me?
I see the love right before my eyes-
Yet, I feel the mist covered disguise!
I would strangle myself without a doubt-
If I had any self driven clout!
But, I’m too weak – too weak-
My tears fall fast and streak – they streak!
-whispers to the moon-
Why can't I feel my ever beating heart?
That once grabbed you from the start?
-screams-
All I hear now is the wind howling at me,
Yelling, “Let it be! Let it be!”
Have I grown stark raving mad?
Did I lose all the composure I had?
What are of these ramblings in my head?
Words that I so often dread?
Toss them all far, far away-
Before my life falls in vast decay!
-mumbles to fade-
Come-
Conceal my woes with your velvety night
Lull me from this evening’s plight
For now, it seems I have lost the fight
But hope will come with first mornings light.
