Odyssey
Odyssey
Silently he sat on the still river
with his eyes fixed a million miles
away from the horizon,he could
feel the boiling waters of hope
steaming up from within the bowl of his disenchanted mind.
i mean the same bowl
from which fear and panic always
had their meal,i guess this time
he didn't offer them a spoon to feed
on his hopes or maybe he finally
mastered the elements of determination
he now dares the devil to a duel,
he now knows the ways of the eagle,
he would battle with Ares
and walk out alive!
he would tell Zeus of his broken wings
and even lend him a pair or two
He would set sail with Poseidon
and win the heart of the raging sea!
He would do anything!!!
because he has gained mastery of taming the beast that once preyed on this thoughts.
he now guides his mind for in there lies
the journey of Life.
