The Way Back
I stepped into the world
With a flame alight in my heart
A sound of distant rolling thunder
An echo of lost dreams
I took the first steps with uneasy caution
With a wisdom of an old man seldom lost
A wilderness grew in my heart
Materials lost in the undergrowth
Searching in the hidden, the wild unknown
I found in the slivers, the blades of grass
The wild berries and sweet nectars
A love for the empty road
The dreams I had forgotten
A love for the love lorn wild
A quiet distant fate
A sad broken child within me
I took a long journey
Of self discovery and love
But the best part of it was
The jouney home and above
