I gathered all my love and affection together
and after time of carefully holding it dear to my heart those feelings turned to a ball of light.
Day by day it became harder to hold onto, more painful to keep and evermore lonesome tucked within my embrace with nowhere to go.
These feelings became a burden, a reminder of a tragic affliction.
I wanted to abandon it, to forget it, to replace it with a lighter burden-
but such a feet I could not accomplish.
Slowly I became a soul ****** to walk the earth burdened by my own feeling like a spirit trapped in limbo by it's own lingering attachments.
Just as I wanted to curse my petty existence,
to denounce the joy I once felt and to empty my heart for the darkness to feed
I looked up one last time and saw what I had been so blind to notice.
As if Apollo himself whisked upon the darkening sky to free my plagued soul
I found the answer out from this onus.
The sky has become filled with lights burning as bright as mine
so I threw my orbΒ Β beyond the horizon that lay before me.
Hopefully this light filled with my love and affection will reach.
My burden is freed and I can live again.
What lies in the future all depends on you;
who lies on the other side of my world.
