Ille Lacrimas

Waves run across the surface of the sea A blanket of fog has descended shrouding the far side of the water in dark mist We hear a disturbance in the seas surface out of our line of sight A man staggers into view He is stranded Alone He searches for answers in the water in the woodland in the hills He finds none As he wanders deeper into the darkness of the forest questioning his fate and destiny he thinks back and reminisces over fragments of his life and what has been lost As time passes the man finds a cabin He feels uplifted at the thought of shelter from exposure to the elements that he has endured Inside the shack he encounters a book that he had lost days before He attempts to find solace in the books pages memories of days passed by It consumes him He accepts his spiritual end It comes full circle
