Northward

You're still here
How strange that you are still here in this frozen expanse of solitude
Where the echoes of loneliness reverberate endlessly
Beneath the howling wind, there exists a melancholy so profound
It pierces the soul like shards of ice
You wander through the desolate landscape of your emotions
Feeling the biting chill of isolation gnawing at your core

You find comfort in the numbness
In the cold embrace that shields you from the pain of human connection
Yet, in your solitude
You drift further from the warmth of genuine feeling
Becoming lost in a glacial purgatory
Where even the faintest flicker of hope is extinguished

You hope for something different, some new thing
You hope for an unknown change that will float up from beneath you
And set you upon a different course
Yet, you are weak
You are led by your emotions
Your emotions guide you and you follow
Living out the same patterns
Making the same mistakes
Always searching for something new
Yet, you
You stay the same

This is your weakness
You a stranded in this boreal wasteland
The time has come that you feel no more
Relinquish your burdensome, human emotions
Turn to me
I will guide you
I will show you the way
