In this dark. misty land
a stranger took me by the hand-
and into a gloomy library I was led.
A dusty book was soon found, I was fed-
heed...don't ever bargain, never be sold
for these words are to be read, I was told.

The words didn`t escaped me I was in frozen dread-
as the whirlwind spun around inside my head.
I saw the light then saw my world darken-
I was left alone, orphaned and forsaken.
Standing on abysses edge with a downwards stare-
leaving me totally naked, stone cold and bare.

The questions entered my falling tears-
and confronted all my nightmare fears.
The inky words imprinted on my confused soul-
for my future was yet to be written upon the scroll.
From the contradictions I wanted to be set free-
but the ultimate questions kept tempting me.

a haunting melody whispered the numbers 25, 41-
so do I shine in the sun or do I weaken and succumb.
Am I blind...can I see?
Am I a slave ...am I free?
What is black...what is white?
Do I stand left....do I stand right?
The many questions I ask to me-.
the answer in my...heartbeats plea
