*****************
I sit in the deepening solitude
Listening to the deafening silence
My self righteous rectitude
In my mind has built a fence
…..
Built to guard and protect
The fragility of my egotistic mind
To defend and deflect
To shelter truths I find.
…..
Are these truths so mystically important
Is it that I just don’t want to face
Truths that speak of honesty
That my heart wants to embrace.
…..
These fences must be broken down
If I am to find the light
And let happiness be found
To share with you tonight.
…..
I cast away the emptiness
That clouds my tired brain
To continue on without duress
Washed clean by love’s sweet rain.
…..
Good night, everybody !
