Escape

In this maze

I am lost

In this phase

I am torn

In this place

I don't belong

In a daze

I live on.

Even time cannot cajole me into forgetting

For my memories are my only constant in this variable world

Even shooting stars cannot deceive me into wishing

For I know what I can't change, I know what is now gone.

In bright sunshine

I am your shadow

In storms

I am the wind

In the shining face of the moon

I am the light

In sleep

I am your lullaby.

Try and escape now.
