Into the Woods

Enslaved by a giant slavery
My search was a search of freedom
In a pure fury
I ran in a wild form
Into the woods...

My life had been begged
By a chained darkness
Championed and crossed
Never near a light goodness.

A ray I found there
Among the tall trees and dry woods
I wished forever a stay here.
Far and wide...In the woods.

My soul embraced a charm
Conjured in a smell of greens
A liberating calm
Lost in the pools of  dreams.

Into the woods
I ran in a wild form
In a pure fury
My search was a search of freedom
Enslaved by a giant slavery.
