I see strangers dance through the forest
As I venture deeper into a muted world
Where most light dissipates
And shadows of swaying strangers
Become all that serve to aid me
In my journey into a great unknown
Where broken stalks
And mossy rocks come to be
The only guide to caress my feet
As I continue on my path-
A path where
I am lost to the whispers
Of strangers
Deep in the shrouded trees-
That demarcate my journey to nowhere.
