Thoughts that carry moments

Left lingering in the dark

Cold and ever wandering

Extinguished, lose their spark

Yet, this fire burns inside me

Chars the paper, where I lay

The words my soul has written

With the flames of yesterday

Light of moon,

Shine on me

Enraptured,

In your fantasy

Shadowed face,

Mysterious glow

Illuminate,

An open window

Allow the night

To sail inside

As stars,

Together,

Slowly glide

Yes, brighten up

A world of gloom

I feel inside

This empty room

I dwell in your darkness

Enticed by the fire

That does not burn me

You fascinate my eyes

Hours spent in endless drifts

Of visions through the night

I lose direction, ever following

As the colors blend to ebony

And my sight blends into you

Closing, slowly extinguishing

The brilliance of your light

I left a path behind me

To follow this one instead

No longer will I go backward

I’m forging my way, straight ahead

A journey I’ve long since forgotten

It’s time to find me once again

Traveling on, there’s no looking back

I already know where I’ve been
