I gaze upon an ink splattered sky. A lone black bird gifts me with a sunset melody. Sitting here trying to figure out where I went wrong ,feelings of sadness and sorrow over shadowing a happy song.
I walk through the trees,as they whisper sweet nothings , rustling of leaves ,making shadow dances on the mossy woodland floor. I wonder alone, Why am I here?In a life of heartbreak loneliness and fear!
Its dark now, I gaze to the skies Clear as the artic ice, on the bluest of days. Cold air breeze blows gently through my hair, as I count the stars ,twinkling brightly up there. Its amazing to think we are looking up at the past, I step evermore forward, I feel a icy blast .
This is where it ends, that neverending pain, at peace with nature,never to be seen again. As I fade away to black, into the frozen lake, I hear the calling of a owl, a majestic creature of the night , hunting in the bright moonlight.
Good bye world. I've lost my fight, under ink splattered clouds ,with the black birds song, don't be sad about me leaving, it's a blessing to me. At peace with the stars ,I'm happy now as can be .
