I wander my dreams seeking it, I need to flush away all my pain and fear, to be cleansed
The moss-covered craggy edge, illuminated by the forest light slicing through the trees
The musty aroma of alga overwhelms, matching the turmoil invading my mind
Ancient stones, ice cold to the touch, as is my heart that hasn’t warmed since the pain and memories of tragic times passed.
My tears erupt into a cascade of salt ladened sadness, falling silently into the abyss
Twinkling light followed by darkness, silent and mournful reminds me of the dreams I hold and the past darkness I must banish
Fall, fall into the dark cold and murky waters, plunged deep, silence as my soul’s rebirth begins
The rope of enlightenment lashes the pail of hope, pulling me back from the depths of despair
The well, now sealed by serenity’s cover, darkness banished, my soul reborn, relit
I wander my dreams, future paths drenched in cosmic light before me, I am complete again
