I think of remorse and regret
Of times past
Making old wounds new
I somehow cannot forget
At times the mind wanders
Attached, clinging in tears
Driven by desperation
The misfortunes account for the sum of all fears
And so I walk in the shadows
Afraid and alone
Restless and isolated
Living with this sadness
A place I call home
I ask what do I live for?
I should not be in the past
I must awaken from my sleep
I must commit to this task
The lesson from ancient wisdom
Lies in the here and now
The life you have chosen is wasted
Thus they spake and gave teachings of the how
Men are at war with each other
Because each man is at war with himself
Man stands in his own shadow
And wonders why it’s dark
The contest not with the world
But a contest still of the self
