Luring me with a promise of salvation The night beckons me into it's embrace I walk away from my sanctuary into the darkness, leaving no trace Never looking back over my shoulder Disappearing, like I’d never been tears dried on my swollen cheeks looking forward to my life of sin I know just where this path will lead and I have no fear as I walk that way It pains me not to make this decision and I will never rue this day I’ve taken my life into my own hands no one else will decide my fate walking away from the pain of you I pray that it’s not too late As dawn slowly lifts her morning veil to reveal the light of a brand new day I hide my smile of pleasure at having found the courage to run away |

There is a quiet relief here, a sigh, a silent prayer of thanks in release..enjoyed the words..thank you.. Goldenrose. Desire for nothing except desirelessness,hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes, want nothing and you will have everything.avatar Meher Baba. |
