So here I go again Thoughts blinding my vision The future so blurry I can't open my eyes Finding my way through the dark A soft hand finds mine And not letting go We walk Not knowing where I'm going I have to trust this hand For as I try to see them Another hand shuts my eyes Being led through the night By this stranger I feel a compassion building And a connection being made For I don't want to know where I am I don't want to see my future But I want to see now And I want to see who is leading me Suddenly we stop And still blinded, I listen Hearing laughter echoing through the silence I hear cries, screams, and then a voice "We have entered into my mind A cave full of fears and dreams If you choose to look, please But if you don't, we'll walk still I visit here for memories To grasp at my past Not many people enter here Even less stay for the door is locked But you seemed to be different Somewhat caring, and curious" The hand slips from my eyes And I take a small peek But I dont see much Only more doors, and more locks And then she speaks once more That voice so soft and tender "Some memories are dead Some I don't like to share at all But someday I'll open up And someday you'll know" She takes her hand away from mine And she leaves me there Blinded in the darkness The silence swallows me whole I stand not knowing where to turn Which door might be unlocked? I'm unsure, so I try to follow the scent Being drawn back to the feeling of the soft hands I wonder where she disappeared to I follow the silence, the echoing footsteps so faint And finally I come across a small bench Sitting down, I decide to wait Maybe she will return when she comes for the past And she will find me here Maybe one day she will come for memories And find a faint one of our journey One so small it may seem insignificant One so small it may seem to be forgotten But I will pray that she will come one day
