Wandering through forests unknown

What lies ahead so vague and frightening

Visions of the past

Are laid out on a canvas

Before my path

Bloodied body

Broken will

The darkness takes its toll

Trudging on

Waiting, clinging to a hope

For a flame

To burn away the darkness

Blinded, no fire came

But a pale glow

Lit by emeralds

Enshrouded in autumns beauty

The canvas

My eyes no longer see

Fear moves not my feet, I am still

Day has come
