I'm not just ornamentation. As each step brings me back to start, can I overtake
my past tense future? Confront...faces of stone. Deceived...stories untold.
Withdrawn...ash searing cold. Arise...ascension alone. Steal rails abscond my

travels. Conversations with the dead prevail. Exoskeleton, hollow inside, the
lost souls wishing me well. If I fall will their armor protect me? If I fall
will the hollow survive? Drifting further...Labored eyesight...Silver

laughter..Envied twilight. The scepter shatters, feel the child inside me. Power
struggle through that same child's eyes. Divided thoughts cloud innocent minds.
Confront...faces of stone. Deceived...stories untold. Withdrawn...ash searing

cold. Arise...ascension alone. I'm not just ornamentation. As each step brings
me back to start, can I overtake my past tense future? Drifting
further...Labored eyesight...Silver laughter..Envied twilight. You cannot chase

your future from the past.
