Oh Restless Heart

Fly away, oh restless heart  
                   seek thy rainbow’s end
Leave me to my reverie 
                         spirit now to mend
     
Find your way, my restless heart
                   winging toward the sky
May you reach a place of peace
              and know the reasons why

While I sojourn deep within
            walls meant to surround me
Venture forth and eye for me
             things that will astound me

Comfort me with tales of joy
              regale your mythic travels
Then fly home, oh restless heart
               before my sense unravels

Such soothing sound to the emotions in this poem, Mike, a feeling of loneliness , but to move forward, but we cannot.
