Surrender To The Uncharted

Surrender To The Uncharted


My heart aches every time I think of you,
As crumpled as a rickle of soft wool merely hanging by a thread

Just as one lifeless soul on our precious earth,
I stand with trembling legs and dejected eyes

And a face as warm and pale as the remembrance of dry rays of sunshine,
Quiet like a burning candle with wax dripping down like tears,
From those dreamy yet clueless eyes

I light a fire in my once hopeless soul,
And let the sparks run through my fearless veins,
For I have decided to rise from the ashes of the fire that once burned bright

I stand strong with valour in my heart and mind,
Vulnerability as my strength unguarded by my thoughts, 
For I have decided to surrender to the uncharted

And now, I declare freedom to my restless musings,
As I finally close my eyes to dream of the infinite once again
For I have decided to be unbridled
