innocence

Darkness, so pure, not a single ray of light can find its way to me
How long have I soaked in this darkness
Eternity? Though at times I think just a moment
I feel nothing, as though there were nothing and I am floating in it

Was this the moment that started it all?
The edge I stood on for so long
The moment before the jump
No catch before the fall
The forgiveness only lifted the burden for so long

And when I had it in my hands, it anchored me underwater
I knew it was over
Her hand, golden and aged, pulled me to shore

Are you alone?
