A New

As though a barrier surrounds my soul,
Languished heart has thus unfold,
Promising wishes propel my dream,
Proof of existence raw deal it seams.

Realistic fantasies run through my mind,
Shield me from,
All of man kind,
Show me the err of my way,
Confront the demon that has lead me a-stray,
Console my body as a mother to her young, 
Let me be reborn,
Again a son.
