Part 2. Awakening

Ripples form in my mind
As I open my eyes I realize
I was born in a world,
A world full of death and demise
Uncanny though it may seem
My eyes grow weak and dim
Pain creeps all over my body
And all my fantasies turn grim
Hurts me again and again
I fail to understand why
Growing numb with this pain
In fear and distress I lie
What could possibly be the gain
For one who dwells beyond the sky?
Now I'm standing on my feet
Ready to go as far I can
Find the answers I'm looking for
Merely an existence, once was a man
So I start this journey
To set foot upon once more
The path that lies before me
Thus slowly I move on
Who knows what I shall see?
Life's coming to an end, forlorn!
