Mist

Sprung from total emptiness Inpenetratable and cold I'm drawn into the gray And then only darkness I can hear the rain again And feel the fragrance of fall I can remember the summer no more Seems like it never was I try to run back where I came from But I fail The gate closes in front of me Now already earlier than yesterday Raging tempest has reached me I'm no longer safe The beauty I saw It can't hold me now The more I walk, the more I stray Long strides in the garden of a withering flower Trying becomes hard And hope unnecessary
