Void... 

Dreary life flows gently by 
My soul it sighs, and slowly i 
Feel more and more apart from earth 
Not one of them, not been since birth 
For here i sit at once my own 
Isolated, lost, alone 
As i change not at all with time 
I watch mankind progress with thine 
And as i struggle to find a ryhme 
I wonder oft, are we divine? 
For how we pass our days away 
Lost in meaningless decay 
I feel that something men forgot 
When he first put life on a clock 
And evermore did follow others 
Wise men, rich men and caring mothers 
All meaning well but short on facts 
We slowly start to turn our backs 
And memory slips through the cracks... 
What was before, beyond, and back? 

But today i was feeling low 
The shadow of oppression grew 
I felt myself hide deep inside 
And felt my heart and spirit cry 
What good the light of happiness 
If life should keep it from my breast? 
But tonight i found you waiting here 
And oh so quickly did i near 
My sanctity i found again 
In the loving presence of my friend 
The light upon my troubled brow 
Did lift from me the fear and doubt 
The sorrow and unwanted pain 
Are falling from my neck again!
