Rekindling the First Flame

Far beneath the shrine I sit here and wait For a thousand years In a state of despair Waiting for the one To come and end me And hopefully once again Restore the first flame For many years i've tried But many times i've failed And all who i've trusted Are no longer themselves Whether it be physical Or possibly mental They no longer resemble Their once past selves As I silently sit here The flame that's before me Becomes a reflection Of my consequences For now I can see What damage is done And now I can see What i'll soon become The fire has now faded I watch it die out And just like my soul There's no spark of life
