Loneliness

no I am not alone
my shadow is my companion
least there is no light

I've been to lonely mountain tops
prayed in the most beautiful mosques

I found God but He let me go
I found peace but the war inside shut me off

I'm a prisoner of the matrix
I can not escape my ill-fated doom

I want to be like a bird free to fly off into the sunset
to travel the world like a gypsy never staying in one place
