Whisper To Me (And I Shall Be Free)

By QuietlyRemembering

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Whisper to me from beneath the surface, Tell me everything you know, Because I have lost sight of the path, And need light to show me the way... Is there a way? Is there a path? I continue towards the horizon but it seems the road turns left, Please tell me where to go, Or I shall forever travel in the same old circle, Depression to hatred to hope and then back again, Always searching for the place beyond the stars, The goddess who  shall take my cold, lonely hands... Is she there, Or am I searching for love that doesn't exist? Please tell me where to go.... 'You shall take the path that leads into the ocean, And you shall continue on until you can no longer breath, Then you shall inhale, And be free again.' You disappear, below the seaweed, And I scream for your help, But you have already sunk, So I continue on straight, In hope of finding what was to save me, An azure ocean calling out to me, But I found no ocean... I found no sea... What I did find was hope, As I fell of the Earth, And sank into an ocean of wheat. I inhaled spontaneosly, And I flew away into the stars, Into the heavens. I flew away... And I was free, For the face reflecting off the pond was mine, And the voice whispering gently into my ear was my own. I knew where to go all along, I just needed a light to guide me.
