Letting Go

Letting Go

I have been in the woods for a long time and I can not find my way out

Letting go of my past, I hope to find my ghost, the one that drowned in the river

The reason I am here is because I can not leave, until I find my killer

The blood on my ragged dress is tainted with the hands of crime

My soul can not let go, for it has no place to rest in heaven, it can not go about

Until the time runs out, I shall search until the trees become bare, and they fall apart

The dark can not keep me away, the shadows will not haunt me, though my love

Has also passed, he will never let me go, though my memory crushed him

Now I walk the path of death, through these woods I will find the answer

To let the creatures sleep, to let the nests hatch, and find the birth of a new beginning

Letting go to the heart of my past, I will greet you in the next life, and we shall dance once more
