The Askance Chapter 5 Part 4b
Deeper and deeper, shadows begin to dance against the wall
Darkness rejoicing were somehow of life to begin afterall
And as always, the door to her rest has only to come to light
To open her door, even darkness will have no place to hide}
“Have you strayed into a dream you never thought to be?
Is this dream a nevermore to think you will again see?
Mayhaps too much are things a burden to your troubling mind?
Yet, why trouble yourself to things you yourself make bind?
All things to begin will come to its end with time to come
And with future’s unraveling, will you know what needs be done
You have nay the burden before you now so choose to carry
Have you nay the dreams evermore you have me with to ferry?
So much are meant never for words to simply say
And with much more hidden is darkness darken to hide the way
Dreams of late as I see, has nay to serve you well
Was it truly a dream to be or an imagined reality you fell?
Yet as true indeed are both dreams and reality you reside upon
And a lifelong lifeline must you forever bear to simply belong
Mayhaps I never will know what burdens your mind to bear
And never yet will I ask from you, an enlightenment to share
Come as you will and have your worries light within my domain
Abandon your grievances to acknowledge our love to remain
Let the scent of the candle guide you to me, to your home
Find your peace, seek for the love we fought through to own
Let me see through your eyes, let me be one with you
Serve me your purpose, let me perceive what you knew…
Soft and innocent alike the fallings of the morning rain
Whispering words to have nothing else but tranquility remain
Hear what you will, veil your eyes to things you wish nay to see
Let me think for you, let me show you of what dreams can be”
‘And I see your soul, wandering alone aimlessly in the dark
With darkness unlike any, drawn from your one heart
Did you remember who you once were, who you are now?
And I am to see, you have uncertainty to answers unfound
And more do I see, you have changed and you have left
Towards the uncertainty of unreality, reality is certain to theft
You have strayed afar, far from your very core of existence
And you only think yourself lost in misguided coincidence
And you find yourself losing control, that which matter most
Feelings undefined yet admitted for your one mind to disclose
Love ironically, embraces all of which lies in your one path
With your enveloped confusion to develop upon this one cause
