Miles To Walk
In silence I walk to the edge of light
drawn towards mottled patches of color
a rainbow fragmented dazzles my sight
How I wish to shed off the cloak of night
not to cling to the comfort of darkness
in silence I walk to the edge of light
to reach the heavens at its fullest height
pushing off the shadows that surround me
a rainbow fragmented dazzles my sight
a netherworld of dreams beyond twilight
wraps tight around the mist that holds my thoughts
in silence I walk to the edge of light
the path I choose to walk may not be right
in a mad frenzy to outrace my pain
a rainbow fragmented dazzles my sight
the miles I tread on is a mess of weeds
languishing in a deep sleeping forest
in silence I walk to the edge of light
a rainbow fragmented dazzles my sight
