A dark shadow loomed
Blanketing my world

My recovering soul
Is drenched in tears
And haunted by nightmares

This menacing storm cloud
Floated over me

I unknowingly built an obelisk
From stones of hate
And boulders of sorrow

A monolithic tribute
To the cruel hand of fate

There it stood
As if it was mocking me
At each glance I took

Then I realized what I did
I poured my pain into this

Now I know where this pain lies
It now stays still in the abyss
I can now run from it

And so I ran until it faded from view
Still I hope, my journey leads to you
