Carousel Melancholia Part Deux

SX-70 Polaroid - 1st Beach on a gloomy day - La Push, Washington

round and round I go reaching melancholy highs.
riding on a carousel  I'm the wolf in disguise.
where am I going and where am I now?
cloaked in the shadows,  it's the darkness that I vow.


Listen closely to my tale of sadness and despair.

Feel my tears fall from my eyes as I rip out my hair.

As the darkness grows deeper and the light fades away.

I wonder who will miss me and who will wish that I had stayed.


Did I swing from the trees, Did I call out your name?

Would we ever have that chance to be together again?

My thoughts rush like fever and sweat drips from my brow.

Where were we then and where am I now?


I can't see my shadow, yet my roots run deep.

Binding, forever, there is darkness where I reap.

It speaks in riddles and it calls out my name.

Nothing is similar yet it all feels the same.


round and round I go reaching melancholy highs.
riding on a carousel  I'm the wolf in disguise.
where am I going and where am I now?
cloaked in the shadows,  it's the darkness that I vow.


Take my hand in yours and hold on tight.

My grip filled with ice, haunting tales of flight.

I challenge the darkness as it enters the ring

No breath, no voice, yet I will still sing.


I'll take on the earth, the heavens and below.

When death calls your name you feel that first blow.

My blood doesn't run and my fear doesn't follow.

Aura black as night as I enter the weeping hollow.


round and round I go reaching melancholy highs.
riding on a carousel  I'm the wolf in disguise.
where am I going and where am I now?
cloaked in the shadows,  it's the darkness that I vow.


round and round I go reaching melancholy highs.
riding on a carousel  I'm the wolf in disguise.
where am I going and where am I now?
cloaked in the shadows,  it's the darkness that I vow.
