Although I cry, I am not sad
Tis merely rain falling
From a twisted tormented tempest

Although I laugh, I am not happy
Tis merely the sound
Of fate's endless humor

Although I try, I fail to succeed
Life is a chaos of questions
With the answers unseen

Although I live, my heart doesn't beat
Tis merel the sound
Of the bird's rat-ti-tat-tat

Although I sing, my voice makes not a whisper
Tis merely the wind
Singing to nature

Although I speak, I do not say
But my tears are uttering
The words dark as night

My heart mutters softly
The secrets of time
Madness and mystery
No reason or rhyme

The dawn greets me brightly
With fire in the skies
The glint of sword in hand
Reflects the world in my eyes

Fear and death lie ominous
In a vast nefarious abyss
Seeking the sinister sovereignty
Of love's fatal kiss

Crystal notes calmly cascade
Through the tragic tempest of greif
Sung by the spirit of the eagle's cry
Whispering the harmonies of belief

Blue and green
A salty sea
The waves drawn
By the moon above me

The stars reflect
Like crystals on cloth
Drops of fire
Fallen on the water

Dreams cascade
Like a waterfall, down
To rest on the shore
At the start of the dawn

I still lie awake
To watch the sun rise
The sleep in the sand
My mind in the skies

These sightless eyes, they burn with tears
The tears of forgotten souls
A once future pain, now in my heart
Sears agony untold

The shadows draw closer, closer to me
In an attempt to break my hold
My grasp on humanity, on life, on love
Grows weary cold and old

Falling slowly down to hell
The hell I created
I lose myself, my life, my love
To the one I never hated

Lost, ancient, forgotten love
Fights for what I lost
Never alone like never before
I will win no matter the cost

The waves call me softly
Like the echoes of a song I heard
The sun falls in fire
Flaming my whispered words
Goodbye is spoken slowly
To the quickly fading light
Her face is softly showing
In the shadows of the night

My eyes fill with unshed tears
As I watch the stars appear
My heart says goodbye
Yet I still wish that she was here
A scar made in an instant
As a star shoots across the sky
The blood flowing, sickening
As my mind says its last goodbye

I left her with a broken heart in tow
I said to her "no longer
Are you mine to call my own."
