I Carry Mine

Blissfully aware of my silence.

Father away from the violence.

I returned to my place of peace.

My soul seized.

The forest is talking.

I do the walking.

I am alone.

I will not leave a bark.

I will not branch to reach the 
skies.

This is my place.

This is where I want to die.

I say my blessings.

Where spirits rests.

I need to pass no test.

I have a quest.

Blood from my heart.

Pain through my eyes.

Bleeding inside my veins.

I carry mine.

You do not have to feel my pain.
