how can this be?

[oftheundead]

never known my eyes to see,
blind for all eternity
always walk this path alone
passing by the rock and stone
lay my head down once Im home
all my fields and wheat unsewn
gentle whispers in my ear,
"please don't go again my dear"
never found my destiny
walking shoeless on my feet
wear away my flesh and bone
I must do this on my own.

never known myself to touch
but how I long for you so much
a life of mine yet less than tough
everyday it's not enough
another pain laid out for me
yet the man ill always be
never known myself to speak
mute for all eternity
but inside myself I scream
how can this be me?
