Lantern

Into the forest, into the peacefulness
Here is calm, here is safety
I am lost, deliberately
Here I linger and I shall not return

Many days, I cannot wait, it gets lonely
But I am lucky to have you
Soon I can rest, serenity
Want to become part of nature, and that I will be

Give light and warmth, I give myself
Last breath, in and out
Time flashing before my eyes
Life brought me here, and death will take me away

Cloaked creature carrying a lantern
Inside the (this) lantern, a ruby heart (a heart of mine)
Leaving threads behind, passing by
I start to follow, traveling the mountain path
Leaving everything behind the past
I disappear and it will last

Death takes me away
