There is a way

By midnights voice

There is a way



If you cast away your dreams
To the tides of the ocean
To the earth of creation
To the birth of mankind

There will never be sleep
In the valleys of redemption
On the pages of the book
The story of your life

You will walk alone in darkness
Stumble upon your thoughts
That you created in silver
From the sun's moonlight

Your path will be forsaken
By the clouds of the times
Your sparrow will wing it
And he will wing it alone

So open up to the truth
Let the vines climb out
Reach up and touch
The soul found inside

Your first step into
The void of the future
May it bend the hard wires
And light up your youth

    Further on I’ll have to reread this. I see where you’re going and I just lost your direction towards the end. Stimulating for sure.

    There is a pain that comes with opening up yourself. It's easy to stay hidden. It's safer, but that pain is temporary. Growing pains, if you will, and from that we can hopefully embrace who we are. Much respect for this. I needed to read something like this today.

    But I did that already MV (and it fried all my circuits:) This assumes we all have a soul; albeit a shrunken one, sadly. Cheers and well-said! - Dan. Le sigh - the world is too much with us, if we let it.

    I am guessing everyone no matter what age they are still has youth inside of them. Your poem really moves my heart.
