stranger's lament

why every evening at around this time
must i perform this endless penance ?
you have cursed me oh so long gone by
it seems you've forgotten when and why
won't you ever let me lie in restful peace ?
each night i come to call with never a reply
if you were but to answer and invite me in
there'd be no need for us to suffer anymore
i'd be free to settle into empty timeless dust
while you, my son, could finally go on living
