A new world, A crystal cave, The beauty of ice, Is like a wave. The cool breeze, From the snowy ground, And the icy walls, This is what I found. That crystal rose, And sweet kiss, I need to find them, Both I miss. Another maze, Never been through, Maze of ice, This maze is new. Catching my eye, Shimmering of ice, Another breeze, It feels so nice. Fork in the road, Two places to go, Which is the right way? This, I don’t know. To the right, A long stretch, Something must be wrong, There must be a catch. On the left, A sweet scent, I go that way, I know what that meant. To the right, Back to death, To the left, The way that’s best. Going down the path, I hear wind chimes, And the girl laughing, This is the right time. I break into a run, My legs wearing out, But I must keep going, Find out what this is about. I reach a room, Nothing in sight, Then I look up, An angel in flight. Stand there in wonder, Frozen in fear, And then I notice, The angel’s tear. Now I wonder, What’s going on? Where is the girl? Why has she gone? I try to speak, I open my mouth, I hear her cries, From north and south. I look back up, In the angel’s eyes, It must of heard, Her saddening cries. I heard her again, From the north, I must find her, That’s my course. As I run, Everything turns black, I see her standing, Death is back. One of us, Death will claim, I don’t want her to go, I will take the shame. I’ve done it once, I have no goal, In this dark life, I have no soul. So I walk forward, Back to Death, So this is it, I take a final breath. The crystal rose, Center of my heart, That was the end, Wishing it was the start. Back in the dark maze, Memory of the rose, And that one kiss, Forever in my heart enclosed. All the death, All the screams, I’m tired of these, Shattered Dreams…
Reason for writing:
This is when I recived the news that she really wasn't going out with me. That was my first heartache. It didn't hit me too bad, but I still hung uot with her, almost as if I was going out with her. The worst was still to come...
