withdrawing from the world,
burning bridges and ships,
marching on until you get lost
inside your soul’s labyrinth.
I reach for your fleeting shadow
beyond the blazing wood,
over the drowning wreckage,
through the twisted maze.
But your soul only answers in silence.
And I keep dying,
each day a little more.
