On The Shores Of Endless Worlds

There he was floating, up in the airShrouded by a black cloakIn the moonlight I stood enchantedHearing no voice but the murmuring windA twisted finger pointing into darkness...Then I saw a path lighten before mePassing through the moonlit woodsI caught glimpses of running shadowsAmong the trees and into the nightWith my first step into this forbidden trackWords lost their meaning and voices had no soundColours were fading and the dead were to hauntDark majesties had returned from the graveHours were passing by but the night was standing stillWinds were of winter, the chill, I couldn't feelThe moon was blood red, full and wideFrom its soul possessing beauty I couldn't hideIn eternal silence, lie myself to rest...As sombre winds faded awayI found myself standing on a shoreWhere the waves meet the silvery sandsAnd the night seems so peaceful, so it pretendsI saw a boat coming towards meAn empty boat sailing on its ownOn the deep blue crystal watersThe waters that seemed depthlessAnd there I was sailing in the boatTravelling across this gloomy ancient lakeI saw creatures' black shapes in the depthsDancing, twisting, they must have been in painThe silvery moon glow was spilling on the cold watersI thought about the life I had left far behindDriven forth from the life they think is beautifulWho would have cared if I were dead or alive?I fell asleep drowning in my thoughtsNightmares haunted me in my restless sleepWhen I opened my eyes, the boat was ashoreAnd then I looked around, I saw dreams had come trueOn the shores of endless worlds...
