The night is young as I am reminded

But tonight the age seems too brittle

Existence passing in each silent hour

My only wish is that it will never end.

A smiling moon helped ease this evening

Perhaps a couple prayers as well

In subtle conversation we talked of school

Times of confusion and then none at all.

Stories of friendships and lost relationships

Surronded by lockers, broken pencils

Our remembrances of freshmen laughter

Hallway chases with tennis balls.

Year two without a skip in lifes rhythm

Little girls by the name I cant remember

Games of Risk with peoples hearts

A chance for confession better left alone.

One more summer down to another try

Thoughts of a future with or without

Car wrecks, frustrated plans in question

Decisions of change for long time friends.

The final straw drawn into senior year

Graduating, essays, and good byes

Pictures to help keep it forever

Desperately searching for the words to say.

Now everything is over except us

Close friends enduring through love

Hope is all we own in lifes cruel grip

Will we return to this talk for something more.

Kisses, hugs, romantic evenings

All in one summer night?

In and out the sands of time

Theres only one thing that I want to call mine

Its close but so far away

Why does it keep moving why wont it stay

Backwards and forwards round and round

I think its time to keep my feet on the ground

And stand here and wait for it to come to me

But it might never come it might never see

What do I do with this confusion of mine

I keep misreading sign after sign

Its all backfired on me and now I see

Everything I have ever done has backfired on me

I think I know why its because I moved to slow

Now I just sit here and go with the flow

You get what youre given and so you must play

Thousands of paths and no right or wrong way

So what do you do with the cards in your hand?

Do you sit there and play or sink into the sand

Well I chose to sink and now Im out of luck

When I did try to swim I found I was stuck

So I keep sinking and I am up to my eyes

The truth will not help me neither will lies

So I sit here and wait for whatever may come

When I am fully engulfed then Ill be done

Theres only one thing that I want to call mine

But I let it slip through the sands of time

Even though you're here

Im still alone in my head.

Still surrounded by those icy cliffs

Giant walls so high

Impossible to escape.

A question has arisen

Why is the ice black?

I look around

And thats all I see

A black nothingness

I scream & it echoes,

But still no one hears me.

The vibrations from the sound

Collide into me,

And I fall to the ice-covered ground.

Knocked unconscious my mind swirls

I see bodies swimming everywhere

They look at me,

With the greatest sadness in their eyes,

We're sorry but you are trapped like us.

I join in the mass,

But still it seems

That Im the one left swimming alone.

Whats happening?! I scream.

We're sorry but you are trapped like us. They repeat.

Stop saying that, I want to leave.

You cannot.

But why? I ask so desperately.

coz, like us, you are another lost soul,

Forever to be trapped, in this thing called oblivion.
