In the spaces of dusk and dawn
Tales of a journey are drawn
Born of light, pure and intense
Shattering shadows, no room for pretense
A pilgrimage to a soul’s reflection
The story of a jester’s resurrection
Bathed in light, vibrant and searing
A plea for understanding is nearing
Through an open lens it comes to form
A life imprinted in a spectral swarm
Too late, echoes resonate my name
Yet in silence I entertain this game
Into the night, the curtains fall
In shadows, a destiny call
I stray to the shade, all I’ve found lost
Willingly paying this inner cost
The season ends, the cycle begins
In the orchestra of existence, everyone sings
In times of yore, a forgotten phrase
A jester dared to perceive his place
In grand tales a purpose he weaved
One day to be embraced, he believed
In a shroud of deceit he cloaked his quest
Kept arguing, would not concede or rest
An unknown decision, a twist of fate
A path chosen, a destiny innate
Lost in the forest, lost in his mind
In freedom’s maze, the truth he’d find
Seeking the reaper in dream and pain
An unending journey, nothing in vain
Oh Lord too late, they’re calling out my name
Yet from this realm I refuse to tame
For in memory vividly I’ll stay
If you shun the waters where I lay
Yet, in the twilight of my rest
My guest, the beacon of a new quest
For every living thing is to oblivion aligned
A silent contract we’ve all signed
Yet, the jester dreams, in pain he roams
In the eternal forest, among the ancient tomes
In the light of dawn, in the heart of night
In memory and dream, he continues his fight
Leave me to rest, too drained to rise
In the heart of darkness, the jester lies
But in the shadows, a glimpse of light
A glimmer of hope, a ground to fight
Forever, the jester wanders, forever he yearns
In the eternal story of life, the wheel turns
Shun these waters where I lay
Keep calling out my name, I dare say
At the end of the tunnel, I’ll find
A new dawn, a new day, purposefully designed
A jester reborn from the metaphorical grave
In the waters of oblivion, no longer a slave
For I am the jester who dared to believe
In the power of a dream and the strength to achieve
Bathed in light, cloaked in the night
I am the story of an eternal fight
In memory and oblivion, I weave my tale
In the heart of the storm, I set my sail
So wander with me in this forest of dreams
Where reality and fantasy are just woven streams
In the dance of light and the whispers of the night
In the tales of a jester and the unending flight
For in the grandeur of existence, you will find
A story of life, perfectly aligned
