A Thought

The night grows dark 
Like most dark nights
A thought
Consumes his dreams
The story untold
As the story unfolds
A thought
Brings the man to his knees
The fields grow tall
Makes the man feel small
Green 
As far as the eyes can see
Truth and desire
Balanced on a wire
A thought 
Can truly be believed 
The most high
Where the cherubs fly
Could it 
Truly be
Behind the eyes 
In a complex mind
A thought 
So effortlessly 
Trust and faith
Leave the rat race
For freedom 
Is just a thought away
Look within
The sins of a man
This Truth will set me free
