Let Me

Let me sleep in the darkness where
 no feelings of angst and terror exist
To my mind I sprayed a story mist
of harmony and care 
and it slept in the inner waves.

Let me enjoy the pleasure of loneliness
and feel solace in the lap of calmness
and here I could find my wings
spreading above the scorching fire

Let me hinder the ecstasy
of old folks told by
an insane man and place
it inside the devil’s pocket to
attach the known with the unknown

Let me crush the walls and sit
beside the stars 
Let me speak to the world and 
befriend its creations
Let me bear the sword of love
and slash the evils
