As I lay there, restless, one winters night 
The winds howling, it was gusty outside 
The frost making opaque faces, long, dull and wide 
My eyes wide shut, it was like I had died 
 
Through the coating of the frost, I saw a ray of light 
Bright and white, a woman, ?Hey! You there?? she cried; 
An unspoken whisper, it murmured deep inside 
With a soft knock by the window, I opened it wide 
 
In swayed the light and some mist as well 
How she looked, I still could not tell 
?I want to talk to you, my name is Syndel? 
She said, keeping my senses withheld 
 
?I've been watching you, everyday and everywhere, 
the way you live, pretending, without anyone's care, 
yet, what is in your heart, so unlike, you're afraid to share, 
so I am here, go on! strip your conscience bare!? 
 
?Deep down inside, you hide something grave, 
like a lingering shadow, deep in a demon's cave, 
a person like me, you have so badly craved, 
please, tell me your worries and they shall be saved!? 
 
Clenching my fists, my heart thumping hard, 
Drawing a deep breath, but still on my guard, 
Life! Death! Having no regard? 
I spoke...........
