Eternal Gray

By Misanthrope

Tragic calling
Frail sapling
Expired leafs traveling
Away with the wind

Raindrops lulling
Tears falling
Taking whats left
Into the eternal gray

Splintered and scarred
But without thorn
Loving all but yourself
Beloved memory

Lonesome I roam
Endless walk home
Following the path
Of the leaf strewed breeze

    such a weighted haunting feel of desolation and surrender.... nicely done
