Away

Ever changing days and never changing nights
Haunting nights that bring me the same dream,
Where the past ends and the unknown begins
In the blue miasma I seem to be in.
I am afraid to move forward
Towards the bright light that beckons
I still feel hinged to the memories I helped create
I still feel buried six feet under the earth.
I try to move around you
Through kisses in the air, whispers in creeks,
Love in the rain, caresses in the sun rays
I want to hold on but I just fall thru.
Each night I wish sleep wouldn’t come calling
Each night I wish I wasn’t presented the encore
But it would never stop, the dreams reminded me
My soul lived in my body no more.
The man with the greedy eyes
Had dragged the last breath out of me
Two months ago
The man with an unlikely urge
Had scattered my bones
Where it could never show.
In the in-between I still remained entrapped
Merging the two worlds I had come to know
Every now and then
I would find my way towards the light again
But I am free, only almost.
Liberation seems a catch away
For me to enter the kingdom
I need to let go of the world I once belonged to
I need to move on and let it do the same
I can not contain my soul in the horizon.
To where the ocean and the sun merge
I must bid goodbye
For the land of a thousand angles await
Across the ivory river
Far away, where no memory exist.
