One Last Step

Brave and cornerstoned
Looking to where my life was thrown
Beneath the eyes of those who wait
Being used for artificial bait
Only to bring those with real thoughts
To a place where calamaty exists

Through the dark Earth I've journeyed afar
Now its time for my final descent
Into the fires I dive ahead
Fearing not whats forward
But behind instead
The fear of leaving what I know
And jumping into what I dont
Creates a shift of life
For it is something new I seek
Going back to where I was
I refuse, I wont

Left unappreciated and distantly detatched
From the thoughts and feelings
That create the life that I am
At what cost do we spend
To change ourselves at heart?
Bound in darkness
It's hard to say where to start
I've given all that I can
Taken very little in return
But thats the flow of my life
To always love and never burn

I know now the truth to what I seek
Starting today
I render myself non-bleak
For the shadows have been my home
A place where eyes cant bend light
To see what we're doing
In our perilous plight

I guess thats what happens
When you sit for too long
You'll see your life pass by
Time is the reference of song
But no longer will I sit
Or wait to be happy
Time is slipping away
It's time get snappy

This is my final journey
Before I am reborn
Will the memories bleed through?
Or will my memory start anew?
Its never good to bury the past
But the future comes and goes
Flies by so fast
If it is me you seek again
Then act fast now
Because once I am reborn
My memories will be locked forever

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A testament to love and loss, and the journey it takes to bring yourself back to life after you lose people who are so dear to you.  But questioning the result of said resurrection.
