BLOWN AWAY
By Roy Merritt


Sometimes when out of doors and under the whirling sway
I wish the rising wind would up and blow me away
Blow me to some distant shore or distant place in time
Allow me some relief from this life I'm in I find
I would be a whole other one free from the troubling strife
Free from the enormity of having to live my life
Free from worrying of others free from their clinging need
Free from compromise and all that one concedes
For what is a greater punishment than having to be just you
What worse upon your person what more could you go through
For are you not an affront to your kith and kin
A judgment from long ago when you did but first begin
Life is a depressing thing, a thing I would not advise
A thing you surely will in your time come to despise
But I know for certain should the wind sure blow me away
And I'd land in that distant place no more here to stay
That I'd naught but have regret and soon wish it to flee
The new person I've become the new person that be me
For if life has taught us anything, anything we should abide
No man has walked this Earth and ever been satisfied
