Unhomed

Gazing at clear skies
by night, I hear the æons
mourning our lost souls.

Would that I could find,
once more, the coldness of stone
on the wind torn hills;
but reason left me, as prey
to my heat of violence.

Free

I will bide no judge,
nor shall any know my paths
of joy, or of pain.

Cure

I need to feel wind,
driving rain, and tides, again,
to wash my spirit;
I hope, to cleanse me of all
this life never should have known.

Let me walk in peace,

Live life without ENDLESS rules.

Free. Thinking. Human.
