Winter Song

The long road goes on
Leading to the unknown lands
What is awaiting there?
No one knows

The white petal falls, reddening
A moment of present turns into history
Like last year white snow
Like the pale pages of the world
Fading into yesterday

What do they know?
Blank pages of life unknown
What do they see?
Dusty bookshelves and broken memories

The lonely road leads to the unknown
While heart longs for finding its place somewhere
Longing bad for hidden untold world
As a long winter night goes ever darker

A lullaby for a dreamless stone
A song of a broken chord
Life in a crowd where you are alone
Boundless world
Beyond the memories ever gone

A silent whisper beyond the lays of snow
Under the innocent white
Where no one can go
None can hide

Silent song of the wind in ever green leaves
Rests in slumber till another spring
Caressing in heart all the dreams
That pale memory still keeps within
