Till We Meet Again

To those whom I miss,
 And to those who would miss me
 Life is short, but long in the living
 Going forth on the uncertain paths of the future
 Seeking an outlet, a path, in vein
 There where that tunnel so familiar
 And that wall banishing the light
 Stifling forever the hope of better day
 Curs'd be she who gave me birth
 Prisoner of life, I await my deliverance
 I am weary of the struggle for chimeras
 Of sensing the weight of time, past and future
 I began my descent as from that first day
 This night shall be mine, that of the great leap
 There will be a war, a key, a door
 Faced with the dilemma of the cord
 Short are the paths which lead to the tomb
 Drunk with eternity I topple the chair beneath my feet
 The phobia of the infinite is speedily replaced by darkness
 This profound and absolute darkness
 Which I have dreamed of for so long
