Well, it’s rather overwhelming,

This need to be okay,

To face the demons lay ahead.

A long enduring shadow

Slowly drifts in with the wind.

Oh, to know the directions,

To understand purpose and goal.

~

I’ll understand when the stars

That adorn the galaxy, fade away.

It’s in the black of night,

My soul might soon return. 

For now the years have weighed 

Heavily on her purpose and need.

I’m left still wondering when and why,

The moments in my life that matter.

~

Oh, sweet remedy is our happiness,

When fleeting notions become smiles,

When casting eyes upon sunlit mornings

We can feel that energy by our side.

This happiness can keep shadows

From enveloping my eyes,

Leaving behind a certain desire,

To own our lives, live our freedoms.

~

I was sitting in my old leather chair,

Thinking about my split seams of time.
