Remembering - By Matthew Holtmeier

It’s been awhile since we talked Lady Raven.
So, long that I forgotten the sound of your voice,
And, the sight of your eyes has all but gone out.

Sometimes, I wonder where you are…
Sometimes, I wonder who you’ve become…
Sometimes, I wonder what life would’ve been like if…
And, I wonder if you were wrong…

I look back and remember your feeling,
But your face is lost to me.
With it has gone my certainty,
Lost in a swirling of fact and fiction.

Sometimes, I wonder who you’ve become…

As far as myself,
I have forgotten so much.
I’ve replacing dreaming with reality,
And, I believe that I’ve learned to cope

But,
Sometimes, I wonder where you are…

Lady Raven,
You once promised me a better world.
One in which I would know my place.
A world of magick and hope,
If only I could find patience.

Sometimes, I wonder what life would have been like if…

But, your promises now seem like empty words
And, the world keeps getting darker,
Friends become enemies,
Love has found its boundary,
And all about me are weeping.

Lady Raven,
Sometimes, I wonder if you were wrong…
