I don't write this for you to find
There is a one in infinity chance that you could
I'm writing this to soothe my soul
This tempest of a beast that slumbers deep within
It was content for a long while to stay that way
Deep in slumber, wrapped in darkness's dreams
But then you came
You with that soul of innocent white
And the light you sent
You disturbed its eternal rest
Now it seethes
I damn you for doing this to me
For awakening me
For forcing me to live
I wanted the world to just roll by
For Time to finish playing with the toy boat of my life and
Smash me against its shores
But that is the past and is no more
I?ve come to agree with this beast inside
It is a beast made of shadows to dark for you to ever comprehend
The only light within it is the lightning of passion
The only sound the drumbeat of its thunder
You think you can understand me
But you are wrong
I don't see the innocent face that you present the world
I see the shadows that lay around you too
You use them but never really see them
Never see the way they wither and seethe
Struggling to escape the slave bonds that hold them to you
It all comes from this puzzle you have
That is where the chains anchor
I doubt no more when you say you are a pharaoh
Or that I am some ancient priest
I know it
I can remember it
The beast within me knows it true
Yet I wonder
You think now that the Pharaoh is gone
Returned to his own time
Everything will be right
You're wrong
Something still rests untrue
Something that is far older and more powerful
Draws the pendulum of balance to stop swinging
Don't sleep lightly
Pharaoh reborn
The animals sense the battle yet to come
Can you?
I can
I/the Beast am restless
A new storm is dawning
Hey a new one (cheers) I think I'm going to use this for a story intro but I'm not sure I might just leave it this way. Anyway RR.
