Could I visit this day again
and think of nothing but the wind
think upon the past as light
think upon the fallen life
To such is grace among the stars
that harbor truth of what we are
in silent anguish to find
how once again I can climb
The waking of my soul to keep
is nothing more than my own heart weak
from the pain I have kept to hold my own
that clamors me down to hell's door
And wish to this my last great fight
the one I hold inside tonight
to let loose all of this
to let the wind once more carry me

Hopefully some day soon the wind will carry you to where it wants you to go.

The wind is a favorite stranger,
one that sometimes holds us
folds us
and takes us elsewhere.

Excellent poem.

Touching piece of work here.  Love the phrazing and the wind has always held a magical quality to me.  You did it justice.

Michael
