Here I Go

from JoeUser Forums

Here I go,

Stumbling through the dark.

Chasing that flickering flame.

Again and again I try,

But once again I fail,

Is there anyone to blame?

It’s cold and I’m alone,

Deep in this hellish night,

On and on I push,

Trying to find the light.

This journey I hope to finish,

Sometime very soon,

Searching for meaning and purpose,

But somehow I feel doomed.

Is this any way to live?

Any way to be truly happy?

Never resting - always searching,

For the Will-O’-the-Wisp in my dreams.

Closer and closer I come,

And away it flutters as I’m reaching,

So here I go…

Beautifully haunting. Nothing verbose...just simple and honest. It's a paradox...I like it alot. Beautiful, and haunting.
