---

A handful of ashes

In destiny’s hands,

Eternity calls

For your name in the dark,

The traces of those

Whom you dearly loved

Are prints on the sand

Of your desperate heart.

You try to step in the void,

To know more about

The laws of the timeless,

Wish to be out of the crowd,

To find your own way

And signs forthcoming.

Time’s waiting just for no one,

And neither is love –

They are disappearing.

And what if your way

Is again a wrong one?

The answers are mixed

And thoughts are unclear.

You still go

Through barriers,

The steps of yours

Will not be in vain.

Let it be so.

And I pray

To reach the goal somehow,

For my way

To be the right one now.

Let this road

Was only in my dream,

Going back is not at all for me.

Per aspera ad astra…

You seeking the truth and longing for hope,

And realizing – it’s hard to give and not to lose…

Becoming a human is not at all easy,

To give and to find what you wanted some day…

You stumble in wishes, in ardent desires,

The wishes sometimes can be leading astray…

Can be leading astray…

You still go

Through barriers,

The steps of yours

Will not be in vain.

Let it be so.
