“goodbye”

Don't think
Don't even blink

The stories are coming
The songs are humming

Rising to ****
All those who fill

All imagining dreaming
And pictures sinking

My stories are stirring
The beasts are luring

Don't look
Don't leave

They know your names
Just as they know my shames

I had them under control
Until I tried to console

The monsters I made
Then put in a cage

But I broke
And then they spoke

For When I thought
Is when they fought

Now I see
My burning tree

Its my heart
The very start

Of love and laughter
Along with all i've sought after

But their souls are screaming
As flames flow bleeding
Through my fingers burning
The tears in yearning
Shed in payment red
For my creations dead

Every time I would die
One of them might fly

Afraid I deny their freedom
And sacrifice them fearing

Their fate
Is mine now late

So goodbyes are long
Since soon i’ll be gone

From all this light
And the ceaseless fight
goodbye
