Passing through the woods, looking behind,
The darkness draws near, forming through the eyes,
To go forward, one must not look back, unless to review, the ways of the past,
So go forward, we will do,
To finally reach, the ways of the light,
The monsters created, will harm no more,
For we have strengthened, learned from our past,
The mistakes we have made, will always leave a mark,
But stop us, they will not, for we are stronger than that,
Our armour has fallen, but will always come back,
For it is formed from our strength, in the hands which create,
The swords which are used, to weaken the views, of the monsters that fall near, so we may not fall too,
May rust once a while, so we have to stay sharp,
Make sure the tools that are used, will never fail to save, so we may make it out unscathed,
The way is clearing, the light is shining,
The darkness is retreating, without a sight of lighting,
The trees are falling scarce, as a field comes into view,
Is it really there, or is it just the light,
Others are approaching, without a sign if fighting,
Have we finally made it out, or is it just a memory,
The shadows come closer, bringing their creators along the way,
And soon we will see, that they are here to stay,
We look around, to feel the ground,
The touch is real, and so is the air,
But we can't forget, the dreams which have made,
To feel as real as a person, drawing closer by day,
We take a step back, to take in the air,
And think everything over, to draw every thing clear,
The mind has finally caught, what the eyes have failed to notice,
And a breath draws sharp, taking final notice,
The illusion, although real it may feel,
Is just a fake reality, created to calm the mind,
That has suffered far too much, trying to escape the reality which has made,
But retreat it cannot, for no one can escape,
And so it will just sit there, drawing lines day by day,
It will never find a way out, so neither will I,
For without it, we are here to stay.
