SITTING LONELY

Solitary the crow fades, taken to the wing
His haunting cry wafts, an epitaph
Looking down through slanted feeble light
Barred windows mark the borders
Beneath the gallows piercing glee

Deep in the marrow, of
A thousand sleepless nights
Prisoners hug the stones for warmth
Their wounds are open and grievous
Eyes of passions past, extinguished

A change of heart, A change in season
Who can force the world’s hand

The tall grass bends, regardless of the wind
Yet deftly it still stands

Pawns of a grandeur scheme
Flicker your souls to the wind
The days will spin without you
Revolutions you’ll never see
Hallowed are the deeds of men

Many years and many miles
Now sitting lonely in disbelief
New eyes burn to make their mark
I’ve dreamt these fettered dreams
I’ve walked the road you seek
