More the wiser

coming down from my mountain

I had no more reason to climb

to where my worries were

now left behind

feeling good, feeling so fine

feeling so right

feeling at home feeling in tune

with my surroundings

yes, no more the fool am I

the fool it was I left behind

more the wiser, stronger in decision

no reason to wonder did I right

I know I did it was my decision

that left her behind

A Silence

all I wanted was to think come
to terms with my surroundings
where

I didn't find a will to listen to
the silence I bear, a silence is
in me

keeps me out of touch, out of
reach, guarding my secrets a
silence is in me

so I struggle on, fighting
contradiction in a process of
regaining

a balance in my soul, I need
'cause a silence is in me regaining
my security

is all I need to get by, this silence
will leave me in its retreat, free, on
the mend

I'll step into life again, a silence is
in me, keeps me out of touch out of
reach

it will always leave, a silence is in
me

Sensation

walking up to my staircase of heaven
not knowing what I will see, feel or find

as where I'm goin' it has no time or place
in the aftermath of a mind where my soul

is breating its new surroundings restricted
to a sensation that can only live in the loss

of a deceased mind,
