Camelot of Love

Amongst many, feeling so lonely,
Strange situation life has brought
And all hopes placed on one, last stand.
One that sets you free,
turning gray walls into blue skies.

Encouraged by shimmering visions in mind,
Seeking something that has already died,
Within modern walls its freedom denied.
Yet, will and spirit remain
With little to lose and much to gain,
To go on decision is made.

Subtle kiss moon has blown
To lost wanderer walking alone,
Traces of light it has shown,
Towering over his dream,
Camelot of love.

Awaken by dawn he marches on,
In hopes of finding what cannot be found.
And so his quest goes on,
Passing shapeless halls,
Guided by lights already gone.

Restless nights haunt him now
Unable to put mind at ease
Not knowing how to sleep
Not knowing how to please.

Last night he heard a voice
Brought from far by a whispering wall
Saying you don't have to win it all,
Just be your own.
Thus this chapter to end is drawn,
Of a story with ending unknown.

Amongst many, feeling so lonely,
Strange situation life has brought
And all hopes placed on one, last stand.
One that sets you free,
turning gray walls into blue skies.
