Abandon

What is it that stretches from never to ever
like endless waves upon upheavals of ocean
for the mysteries of dark and light lie upon but
a whisper through a dwindling sign of silence.

Like endles waves upon upheavals of ocean
raged not by heavens, nor by saints, nor by sins
I cradle the seas upon my sunned shores, today
hiding all pain, discreetly from man's curious eyes.

Raged not by the heavens, nor by saints, nor by sins
through hills and fields, sharing motion and time,
I shall, now, wait for no one to be by my side, for I
have known fearlessness through a kind of abandon.
