Green Mist of Light
In the darkness, where tears of silence fall,
A heart of confusion searches for meaning.
Existence is pointless without purpose.
A purpose does not exist once a soul looses recognition.
I know who I am… I am a defender,
A warrior ready to give my dying breath for a complete stranger.
I know who I am… But knowledge is nothing when you act through memory past.
I know who I am and I help so many, but is it real?
Do my actions really show my purpose?
Why do I ask such questions?
Simple… My soul can no longer see itself.
In the darkness, where I have cried many tears I found it.
In the green mist something happened… Something I’ll never forget.
When I looked into the beautiful mist, my soul saw itself.
I don’t understand how it happened, but there it did.
In the dark, deep within the mist… I found myself.
