Loss

Ashes of hope dim the scarlet heavens
I wander through the forest of lively suffering
Heart sinks into sorrow like into swamp
I know, nothing can save me in this world

In the place where my soul once dwelled
Now dull pain lives into dark cell
My life is scattered like leaves
Will go through the fingers like a sand

If this early wounds won't heal
Is the soul doomed forever and ever?
Who sentenced me to be lost for centuries?
Does life have no meaning?

I don't even see reason of death
I was unable to save what was dear to me
I am a hermit, orphan soul
Nowhere have I seen the dreamed rest

Shadows of tombstones attract me
But they are silent too
The answers to my question is silence
The tomb of the time is the past

The constant search for answers causes sadness
Dying hope is my faith
Nothing I can change, never
Alas
