Chapter 2: Memory of Time II
I never thought my existence
Would be so short.
That one day I would
Become a prisoner
Of my own mind.
For me everything is a blur,
All I can do is
Stare out through the eyes
Of someone else.
Someone that I created,
I am such a fool.
Was Pride and Loyalty,
Really worth that much?
I cannot even see
A clear answer;
The only thing that stands tall
Amongst this darkness is
The memory of what I lost.
Her face,
Her smile.
5 years,
Its not a very long time
If you think about it.
Just enough time
For a child to grow
Into a man.
For 5 years I was,
Stuck in place.
Rooted in the river of Time,
Watching the Memories swim by.
And now all I can do
Is struggle to keep my head afloat.
There are no more
Boulders to hold me back.
I am free to drown,
At my guise.
Funny how life works.
One second your sharing your first kiss,
The next, that person
is on the other side of a rift
you'd do anything to fix.
I'm such a fool,
But unlike other fools;
I cannot change.
I cannot change the past
And now I cannot even change the future.
I am stuck in a black river,
That no one can pull me from.
Hmph… great ending for a prodigy
