The Change
I live in a darkness filled world,
A darkness filled with cold,
Of things that fright and scare,
Simple minded people everywhere.
And in this night of tainted delight,
I am called by a random message light,
Someone that, unknowing by me,
Would change, something in thee.
I answered the call, after all,
It could be what I seek,
A maiden, that I could share,
And end, the lonely existence here.
What I found, filled me with confusion,
It shattered, my dim lit illusion,
Nothing would ever be the same,
Attracted am I to the flame.
I will not lie to you, no I will not,
Of love, passion, I did seek to plot,
Selfish, was my aims and desires,
Unaware of the depth of the fires.
But the fates took me by hand,
And brought me to a strange new land,
Where all, I knew before was gone,
Then they showed me, your hand.
I’ve never felt these feeling before,
Of the tears and waves on the shore,
And thou, there be rocks in that sea,
The tides of that ocean still moved me.
I so I stretched my old unused wings,
And try to pull the rocks from the sea,
And seek the shelter of a shore,
An exit, or at least a door.
Now, water slowly dries from the rocks,
And the storm, slowly subsides,
Except for the feeling inside,
Old bones are mended.
And thus, if it be for only friendship sake,
Of uncertain futures, and possibility protected,
I offer this, on this day,
If only to cheer you, up this day.
