Am I the Only one

Am I the only one
That dares to name
Nameless things
Am I the only one
That dares to challenge
To reach out beyond
The far beyond
Reach out to where
Unknown forever
Unasked questions
Beg to be more
Than just questions
Waiting in the darkness
Waiting in the bottom
Waiting in the depths
Forever waiting in my mind
Am I the only one
That dares to wonder
When things of wonder
Beg to be wondered at
Am I to forever be
Waiting, hungry as
Eternity challenges
Forever thirsty
Forever wandering
In some deserted desert
Where shapes
Are no more than shadows
And flames are no more
Than dying embers
Giving no warmth
Giving no light
Am I the only one
That dares to shower
When there is no water
When there is no soap
When there is no hope
Am I the only one
That dares to dare

Am I the only one
That dares to beg
When I look down
From castle towers
With my belly full
Of wine, of bread
Full of cheese and beer
Am I the only one
That’s forever lost
When the worst sinner
In the depths of sin
Finds some kind
Of forgiveness
Some kind of salvation
I am I the only one
That dares to name
Nameless things
