Being Me

These things I've seen

This loss I've known

For all this time

I let it grow

 

It leaves me now

I am alone

To live my life

I'm coming home

 

From a darkened room

In an empty home

To bathe in sunlight

Wash away the stone

 

 

No longer hunter

I have all I need

No longer prey

No fear to feed

 

Cobwebs of living

Blown by the breeze

Freed from the outer

By an innermost peace

 

I'm building a city

A place I can live

Building inside me

All that I can give

 

I am the wind

Now blowing

I am the tide

Now flowing

 

Not wondering

Just wandering

Not longing

Just belonging
