Shelter

I walked the crimson path of fate. Knowing it would always lead me home. And as each event in my life continued I learned more and more about what had happened in reality. 

So I questioned and spoke.

"What will become of me from now on?" I questioned before.

"After some time," I continued, "I stopped thinking about that."

"Nothing changes anymore." I spoke again.

"Each and every day continues on," I opened my mouth to speak, "But I'm not lonely."

"It doesn't bother me at all," I never knew that even if I was dreaming a sad smile painted its way across my face. 

I didn't feel alone anymore, so I knew what to do, I began to sing, a sweet lullaby in this moment of never ending trust.

~I could never find the right way to tell you~

~Have you noticed I've been gone!~

~Cause I left behind the home that you made me~

~But I will carry it along~

~It's a long way forward~

~So trust in me I'll give them shelter like you've done for me~

~And I know I'm not alone~

~You'll be watching over us~

~Until you're gone~


~When I'm older I'll be silent beside you~

~I know words won't be enough~

~They won't need to know our names or our faces~

~But they will carry on for us~

~It's a long way forward~

~So trust in me I'll give them shelter like you've done for me~

~And I know I'm not alone~

~You'll be watching over us~

~Until you're gone~


~Yeah it's a long way forward~

~So trust in me~

~I'll give them shelter like you've done for me~

~And I know I'm not alone~

~You'll be watching over us~

~Until~


"Even if those memories make me sad," I began, feeling tears fall down my cheeks, "I've got to go forward believing in the future."

I took a deep breath, "Even when I realize my loneliness," I sighed again, "And I'm about to lose all hope." 

My smile grew, holding sorrow, and sadness, "Those memories make me stronger. I'm not alone... Because of you."

I smiled looking at the dreamed sky, "Thank you."

I continued to look at the sky, my smile holding sorrow, sadness, love, and hope. 



~Yeah it's a long way forward~

~So trust in me~

~I'll give them shelter like you've done for me~

~And I know I'm not alone~

~You'll be watching over us~

~Until~



~And though I know~

~Since you've awakened her again~

~Seems past's on you~

~Hold them on you~

With my song ended. My memories collided creating tears of hope fall to the ground. Each one hit the reality. Tears collapsing to the steel floor as I continued to sleep on here.
