The Scorn, pt.VIIIA Poem by mhylandsLost in the woods, I venture on Unknowing, it is time I left Held up for so long Afraid to move on I know this choice is best Accepting the realization of ignorance Steadily making the motions Long ago, I was faced with this Yet, could not force myself to see Incoherent, still I wander In a daze, a silent slumber Pretending this decision was my own When there never was Identity associated to a false predicate An existence incondite Sealing off the lacerations No longer shall blood be shed Ensnaring the cursed sun from shadows Embracing an apocryphal warmth A once fervent passion To be denied and forgotten This forest seemingly endless I know there must lie an exit Searching for a way out Feeling I have lost my will It is for the best To let go of this obsession I shall leave this place But, no one can say when I will Finally be able to end this journey Weary, these legs continue to move Departing in solitude...
