Lost
Copyright 2005, Michael Bihovsky
Struggling to decide between the two most important people in her life, the kind-hearted Melody is pained to know that either choice she makes will lead to feelings of betrayal in someone that she truly cares about. Unable to help both of these men, each of which has given her so very much in life, Melody begins to feel as though she has lost her own identity -- for when unable to help others, Melody is unable to help herself. And so, alone and unsure, Melody wanders, wonders, and remembers.
MELODY
The streets are filled with strangers
And the water leaves the streams
A fire burns, consuming all
The embers of my dreams
I fall to catch my memories
As my greatest fears advance
For nothing matters anymore
I’ve had my time; I’ve had my chance
I’m lost in an ocean of despair
The friends I love, the gods above
Don’t even know I’m there
I tried to focus every day
But even so, I’ve lost my way
It wasn’t worth the cost
Please help me...
I am lost....
A whisper in the twilight
Tells of secrets I can’t know
If I could leave the river
Would it ever cease to flow?
Everywhere I once saw magic
Curses have been cast
I strive to find a brighter purpose
But I can’t bring back my past
All alone in the night
Nothing left, nothing right
I close my eyes and see
Above the skies, shine bright your eyes
That sought to see inside of me
And if I knew the way
I wouldn’t wonder anymore
But I simply can’t betray
All that I was before...
The world becomes indifferent
And a shadow hides the light
The flame burns ever stronger
Burning through the endless night
I’ve made a choice
To stay on track
I made a choice
I can’t go back
The river can’t be crossed
Please find me...
I am lost....
