Wounded And Free (+3)

Honing the blade of life’s

 greatest adventure

 

The edges were sharp

 with the meaning inspired

 

It shaved like a razor

 as days became short

 

The last cut the deepest

  —left wounded and free

Feasting On Famine

 

Feeding on my hunger

 the days were longer still

 

That yet to come and still undone

 left victim to my will

 

Starvation my horizon

 its emptiness on fire

 

Unending pangs my souls repast

 —a famine to inspire

Last Doubt

 

Each breath gets me closer,

 as the past moves away

 

With choices much clearer,

  turning night into day

 

One meaning unchosen,

 its Angel benign

 

Forever most willing

 —last doubt now divine

One Time Forever

 

The night retreats in silence,

  as daylight rules the fray

 

Darkness reigns the past goodbye

  this moment not a dream

 

The present all we’re given

 the future lies astray

 

Repeating truth inside itself

 —one time forever means
