Good Evils: Deliver Me

For years I've wandered, seeking my true self Lost in the shadows of a forgotten shelf Where have my footsteps led, where do they go? This winding road, this endless flow In the depths of my reflection, I search for me Through the crafted wide pane, I gaze uncertainly Is that figure staring back truly who I am? Or just a mirage in this reflective realm I flip through the pages of my abandoned past Words and memories, hidden and vast Stories untold, secrets unseen For who has truly looked, where have I been? In the silence of forgotten times I dwell Weaving spells with words, a silent farewell But no ears to hear, no eyes to see The essence of my soul, the truth of me My pain echoes in the chambers of my heart Tears of shattered dreams, torn apart Dreams crushed beneath the weight of reality's boot A fleeting glimpse of a forgotten pursuit In the echoes of the past, I search and seek For the essence of me, the truth I seek In the depths of my reflection, I yearn to find The answer to the question, the peace of mind
