A Way Out

Life stays cold to me
Mistaken regrets, wish I never had

Purity, a gain to be cherished
I forgot to stop and stretch the aura I longed

The aura that comes day by day
The assurance I cannot see
 
Heart felt rest in panic with life
Destitute, the word I am compelled

Mighty wreck steals the nostalgia
What next, I seek a hearing

A force to reckon, a force that beckons
The need to release inner strength captivity

What I can say; a celestial favor
To end the reward of a drifted tide

Clipped hands, eyes closed on a bed of sacrifice
To regain my light, to reap and smile

A way out!
