A Passionate Journey

Today I dreamt of life on earth

And I boarded a train ready for the world.

Descending on the streets where the sky is scraped

And the crowds collect.

Confused and alone I try to find my way.

My heart beat as I chased

My life through the street.

Walk with me.

Cold world,

Embrace me

Because I am lost in the chaos

And I feel all alone.

Nothing to call my own.

I fell in love today

And it was the best thing I ever felt.

No more confusion about who I am

Because this is who I want to be.

I woke up with a purpose

And I laughed back at the crowds

Drowning in modern bullshit.

I planted a tree in front of my home

And I can no longer see out of my window

But it makes me smile just to watch it grow.

And I opened my eyes

To the beautiful things that make my world spin around.

Today I heard that another hundred men were killed.

Many people joined me in dismay

And we crowded the streets.

Today everything was taken from me,

Stripped down to nothing but a bag of bones.

Today I ripped out my heart out

Of my chest and I stamped it into the earth.

My face turned to raw bone

And I danced with the stars.

And the pages stopped turning in my passionate journey.

They just couldn't tame him.
