Abandoned by Light - The Shimmering Radiance of the Dawning Horizon

The Shimmering Radiance of the Dawning Horizon


The morning mist spreads it cold embrace out
Holding the dawning world in its chilling hold
Empty streets, undisturbed silences, hollow
The world that greets my gaze is forgotten
Under the shimmering radiance of the dawn

Solitary figure under the gloom of street lamps
Wanderer in the sea of fog and silent hills
Tarmac roads and concrete alleys long forgotten
Paths to alternate realities and thoughts abandoned
My journey through suburban nightmares

To reach the end, the end of the silence
To accomplish nothing in the early years
Destined to be a faceless entity in this world
Nothing but fleeting periphery to time and space
A wanderer amongst the masses and the worthless

As the morning mist begins to recede back
Returning to the weary embrace of the earth
I reach the edge of this place, and stare out
Across the end of the world, to the beauty
Of the shimmering embrace of the dawning horizon
