"My Renaissance" by Skywolf
---------------------------

The yoke of the past weighs heavily upon me
as I lie in my bed, trembling softly.
Nothing else seems to matter, no one seems to care,
this torment within only mine to bear.

The room is spinning around me and I don't know why,
I can't stop the pain no matter how hard I try.
Demons from the abyss torment my soul,
my will power only enough to keep me under control.
Throughout my veins the hate runs deep,
as I pray to God, my soul to keep.
I don't want to lose myself, I don't want to die,
if only some one could hear this spirit cry.

Then, from the darkness, your image pulls me to the light,
and once again I learn the meaning of flight.
I remember your soft, gentle touch,
and how my heart aches when I miss u so much,
from the depths of sorrow, i'm in heaven again
as I recall your sweet smile, way back then.
How could I have fallen, why did I drown?
Must I always act like this pathetic clown?

Let bygones be bygones, I tell myself now,
I realize this only after you've shown me how.
There is no place in my soul left for dismay,
because forever in my heart you'll stay.
Let us be whole forever, oh love of mine,
for I know that we will stand the test of time.
