Let Me Be
Somewhere yonder under a gray sky
Where no one comes to prowl and pry
Under the cover of deep dire shadows
where nary but a fiercest wind blows;
Ah yes, there! Life, just let me be
I’ll lie low alone awhile and see.
Unbeknownst to my dauntless demons
My destiny—oh, it beckons and reasons
Not to wander in this dizzy, endless haze
where the mind weaves a deceptive maze;
Alas, I have my strayed soul to convoke
So life, let me be—Pray, do not revoke!
~Criterion: Mood
