---

I walk in silence

with uncertain steps

Time dragged along

through deserted depths

The pain hasn’t ended

but it no longer leads

I carry the fragments

with apathetic deeds

I will return

from the shadows

with no light,

no shrine

Yet I move

in pieces

no longer

confined

Stifled scream

has turned into a guide

The weary chains

now fall aside

I return

from the shadows

with no light,

no shrine

Yet I move in pieces

no longer confined

If all is ruin

then I am the dust

That dances in the dark

free from chains and rust

I carry the fragments

with apathetic deeds

I will return

from the shadows
