Nostalgia

As in a dream I traveled back to times lost, places remembered And with me I took all that is I And once there, I held still in the moment aware that again it would be gone Gone were the days - echoes in memory sweet exallings of my mindless flaw lived on… Together we ran away abandoned reason for hope And left behind our essence Lost it all, and for what Alas, on wings of hope were we to meet at the end of roads To what the facade dressed in strokes of mocking void left me dreaming for To past comes alive and clear with awareness Trees bare green around the senile court Awaken to the kind of dandelion youth others have only dreamt about To hold is still The countless times I've searched and failed for what - you cannot see Seductive cult of yearning blindly leads me still - away Blessed with the notion of past no more we blundered on without cause The mist once ever fallen - forever exiled the most cherished thoughts

I have always claimed my right to have caring not for fate nor loss The choice was made a hundred times and more to begin my search again and anew to be born

With solemn gaze towards the far gathering remnants of vibrant unease The sun inert, behind a sullen fog and still towards eastern shore The time begone became my northern star like so many times before Into primeval With disquiet at hand the sole word laden by avowal And this eve's contrariety manifests There alive by midnight wild the weary guard watches Gathering around as winds dance upon the nest again See me in the summer night among the ones who knew my tale. know me still For I am returned to where I've dwelled There upon the summit of hope where tracks blend with echoes of the past… The blooming flora I've come to cherish extends its fearful hand How weak my voice among the winds of time How small my stance, against colossal trends How feeble my hope in the hands of the maker and, how misguided my reason to beg for this - A new setting …and there at he solstice of this animation to disperse back into the void…

Having first entered the void I turned to night's blooming fields All shining in violet, reddish livid Assumptions were of nothing less than spring's courtly welcome Begging my will to stay Left alone I tried a path destined to fail from the very outset Cast aside, barred from joining in your glorious essence One by one the droplets fell from the heavy sky Touches of a calming cold against a fevered skin I found more worry than peace in the light of this On the ridge of sight to whence I've run, defying given fate Untouched by passing time storm of earth - I call your name Having first entered the void I turned to night's blooming fields Among them my own steps I found - fading sea of leaves…

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

Cast my whispers into wind… Let them fall wherever words find receptive soil Cast my thoughts of winters gone together with their fading memory May they rest in cold silence under blanket of white snow …until it's time to wake and cast my whispers into wind Set my dreams among the living spring scent of pine and wings towards the call Torn a thousand, forceful, feverish ways Cast my whispers into wind… Let them fall wherever words find receptive soil Torn a thousand feverish ways And once the day of end arrives drown my urge in soil's warmth … Take me back, hold my arm in the summer of life When the breeze reached for our faces and I could bear your heart

My own youth was a boundless canvas of a checkered land With golden crops where an endless summer reigned The colors fed my very soul Bathing in the warmest rain giving cover with a forest bloom Bestir - I thought - from this summer daze Just as the honey veil of lies binds my eyes… The glaring days of carefree life transcending lucid dreams of flight - why doubt - when you can stare into the sun To lose yourself in blissfull world guided by a burning light that leads astray lock your eyes and brave the pain Until the worold in darkness finds itself It's blackened drape - my likeness Illusion of triumph faded scorch of lids turned to dust Rub away the wreck of my shield Expose my obvious self imposed delusion Among the scars that marked me now there once was, torn by a fall A night sweet lie a promise made in neglect betrayal forebode Black world of thoughts where bedrock came bare Tainted intent roots carcass of our symbiose Brooding in the dusk the dread apparent touched by a Judas kiss, devoid of…

…stain the canvas black… And so my endless dreams contrived marked by peering face of childhood years forever scaling turn of downward steps For still unknowingly from this guest I've laid upon my faith and pride the long forgotten dread I won And ever since that moment and every night in shapeless helpless mist I've drowned seeking forever…
