When I fall...You'll have to let me go

I have all the finer things

The dreams of others and wishes of most

The things only I can afford to obtain within my grasp

Nothing is too far out of reach

Floating out on the seas and drifting aimlessly

Covered in mist and salty clouds resting in haziness

Those things that morning brings as the sun starts to breathe

Across the skies and under the earth are these things that I long to bring to me

Yes, all for me and as I stand out on the mountain tops that I've built for all to see

Remember this...remember how proud I was

How sure I became of all decisions made for me

Confidence overflowing with pride and spilling all over these golden floors

For soon I will be sent out into the woods of despair and depravity

Longing for what I had and eventually regressing into darkness

Leaving all sanity to the elders and wise men that I so heartily hired for protection

For so many long nights will I beg for the sun's rays of warmth

Begging for it and needing it like sight for the eyes in order to function

Cursing the sun during the day when I finally am allowed to feel the heat

Thirsting for the coolness of the moon and the gentle calm that it brings to the table

Like long lost friends will we be in the days ahead

For a shadow shall I become and all of the dreams, wishes, and things that I have obtained will fall like ash from my memory...from my grasp

These things that I have resurrected in my honor will no longer be mine to gloat over

For these very precious jewels shall return to the Master of the worlds and kingdoms to come

And no longer shall mine eyes be granted a glimpse upon the beauties before me

My time has come to disappear into the night

To become one of the others who dream and one who wishes for more

So tell me when I return who I was and I will show you who I've become
