As I opened my eyes
To the day's clear light.....
I found the nightmare standing
Near the foot of my bed.....
As long as I can recall.....
The hushing songs of the dark....
I recall that hooded being...
Whose face had a scar....
Being dragged back
To the unknown
My eyes shunned away
From the light....
I am helpless in the darkness.....
I am prisoner of its might....
A loud mourn from the corner....
Chills me to the bones.....
The shriek is so deafening....
And I realize I will fall.....
Falling into the oblivion.....
A place existed, I forgot.....
Shaking off that I had forgotten....
I try to pick up the pieces and fill in the gaps....
I try to find my way.....
Out of this haze and fog.....
I cannot see the way ahead.....
The darkness blindfolded my eyes....
How can this oblivion be so silent.....
Not a being is to be seen.....
Unheard voices whisper .....
I keep looking from where they emerge....
Like a shadow melting in the dark.....
The strange nightmare vanishes at last.....
Still following me in the dark.....
The hooded silhouette stands.....
Behind the tree, hidden......
Like watching over me....
I have lost much time.....
In confusion......Like I have lost myself.....
In my own Oblivion.....
I submerge in my thoughts....
Again and again....
My eyes feel terrified....
But with no pain.....
I am helpless.....
Who will help?
Will I know....
What's in the well?
A shadow of mine...
Reflects back as if a stranger....
Will she help me?
Or just run away like a traitor....
I lend my hand to her.....She grabs and comes out....
Its like me returning....
From the well....
Out of my doubts....
Out of all I thought was deep....
I sunk in my own oblivion....
Now I arise with this new hope....
I have found at last...
It was me who followed....
The unexplored....
The stranger.....
That black hooded....
The nightmare....
The shadow....
The reflection....
I am facing myself now....
All questions answered at last....
I needed to know myself....
I refused long ago to seek....
Now I know why she followed.....
It was me who was a stranger after all...
