Adam Zank - Chasing Fate

Why does she run away?
I only want to touch her...
Why can 't I catch her?
She runs like the wind, ghosting through trees and bushes like a wood nymph.
I get the feeling she is playing with me,
letting me glimpse her flitting through the forest.
When I get close, she escapes me again and again.
Her pale, pale blonde hair flowing with the wind...
Why do I feel this way?
Compelled to catch her, to embrace her in the Forest Infinite...
What is her Name, you ask?
Now this I can answer!
Her name is Fate!
