As the sunset bleeds gold on the horizon
I walk alongside the freezing Gjoll
An abyss of nature and hopelessness
The bleakest thoughts and the darkest waters
No light reaches here, no life, no happiness
Nothing of what I have left behind.
Weightless rain against the water
is the Death Knell of my own demise
The rain and the current are my only companions
They both sing a melancholic melody
In the river I see a reflection of my nihilism
Of how my life was wasted away
In those below I see myself
And the sorrow that runs within
And as I drown it in the rain
The rain drowns in the water
Slowly descending into the painless waters
As I lose touch with my body
My blood will flow away
And my bones will be laid to rest
Those who wander in these waters
Live at ease with the meaninglessness of life
I detach from my former self, bound with nature
I have descended above the water
Before my passing I see a
Gleam of light above the surface
Life generates from my remains
And death is all around me
Caressed by the water’s soft touch
I witness the passing of time
My memories unrevealed
My legacy forgotten
I am in ruin
I am decaying
