That could see the daytime in the dark,
Absorbed in the world of my own, of it I thought nothing,

my soul too young to die.
I’m not scared of nothing
but my reflection, my shadow...
Hands hold firm on mine
my past nature entails
fear loving again.
My heart forgives all
My brain forgave none
Lest I feel again,
I feared I'd come undone

Gut wrenches
Nerves spiral

I stand on the edge of a cliff
Facing out to the sea that seems so far
Looking down, it’s an abyss
Loud; but steady
An unfamiliar stillness in the air forces me to stop my rythmic movement
A thin layer of calm engulfs me as I slowly come to a stop
Wind can be powerful
Being forgotten
Being remembered
Being the center of attention
Being alone
Being afraid
Being reminded of all the nothing I've made
of my life
