I’ve been down this road a time or two before
Between the shadows of death and life itself
Feeling that breeze of absence, push against me
Like some nefarious ghost trying to sabotage hope
Slowing my approach, that's heading off to unknowns
Stepping back in muddy tracks, I’ve laid previously
Before falling off that deceptive precipitous cliff
Yet, once again in an earnest and blinded effort
Compelled to chase behind the same sun and moon
Like some shared, dutiful shadow, in search of
What hasn’t been found in a wayfarers clock face
That own but a limited life's without a restart
A place never known nor seen before in this life
Yet, calls to an embedded fire in his heart
That's lays beyond the pall of human perception
Where mind, body and soul are elucidated, as one
Erasing all scars and pain of every operose step
Replacing failed loves, broke and shattered
To reach and live- in love's … welcomed arms
