I tried a map,
I tried a guide,
I never found it,
Something died.

And as hopes did I lose,
My light just to flicker,
Heart fell to disuse,
Cobwebs cover my soul.

But as I break free,
Break free of this web,
I look down to see,
The ashes that be.

So to fan the embers,
Now down on my knees,
My forgotten hope,
In front . . . I to read.

I carefully follow,
The long dotted lines,
So entwined with my sorrow,
Where to I confide.

But along the parchment,
Shining light starts to pass through,
I begin my descent,
To look upon that which I knew.

I should have looked here first,
I now shake my head in this humour,
My heart filled to burst,
I see clearly this hour.

And with all my hope I ask,
I pray to God sincere,
That this may be to last,
My whole life
