Staring as the fog covers up the window
And the soft beads of light fade into the eternal night
My hands outstretch and return vacant
A new dawn emerges with yesterday’s routine in tow
Wandering like smoke through the face-lined hall
The weight of the future and the burden of the past
Destiny screams out into the cave
And only echoes answer the impatient call
The rats of fear are trapped within the mind
Endlessly toiling on the wheels of truth
In the prison sits the lone soldier
An overflowing notebook and a heart confined
