mind.in.a.box - Lament For Lost Dreams

I woke up one day, and didn't know whence I came. I looked back one day, and nothing spoke my name. I saw myself from afar, and could not comprehend. I felt a throbbing scar, and knew it would never mend. I beheld the path behind me, and the weeds were growing tall. I looked where my footsteps should be, but there was nothing there at all. I knelt down without a sound, feeling the emptiness inside. I buried my face in the ground, screaming silently to stem the tide. I will cry out into the night, and let my anguish die away. I will thrust my agony aside, to prepare for a new day. in this moment my strength failed, I was falling through the ground. in the distance my soul wailed, all my parts became unbound. in this moment I felt strong, I could see me inside out. and my soul it came along, so effacing my pitch-dark bout. I cried for what was not meant to be, a last tribute to lost dreams. I had to leave behind my effigy, and with it bury all my screams. I turned around and looked straight on, aware of the crossroads up ahead. I felt my fear the first time gone, and saw a future for me to tread. I will cry out into the night, and let my anguish die away. I will thrust my agony aside, to prepare for a new day.
