Lost in the woods
I walk barefoot
Dancing to your music
Chained and hooked
Before the sunrise
Before my birth and demise
I will open my wings and escape to you
Even if god defies
For you are my god, my religion
You are what is written and unwritten
On my forehead and my heart
Covered in you completely smitten
In your lust I am lost forever
In your wait I walk and I never,
Stop and look back, for what is left
Is lost forever
I keep falling, my pieces scatter
Drenched in my blood, they stagger
Leaving my prints, marking your name
Swaying to your tune, one by one, they
clamour
I will walk till nothing remains but
you
My pieces will fall till nothing
remains, only you
And I become one
With you, all pious, all new

stanza, with a rhyme scheme of AABA
