When Deception and Freedom Walk Side by Side


Hushhhshsh … At Last now it is safe
Safe as a bird in its hatch
Safe like the string in its sacred place in the guitar
Safe as a song unsung

Isn’t it quiet!!
Yessss ..ssss At Last it is quiet
Quiet as the lake in the winters
Quiet like the leaves at midday
Quiet as the night undisturbed

Ohh.. it’s not moving!
For heavens, it is still
Still as a mountain in its place
Still like a memory restored
Still as a breath unobserved

Don’t you want to ….
Want to what?
Let it be .. Let it free?

Free you say
Free as a haunting dream spree
Free like the dishonor awake
Free as a havoc unchained

See not as you see
Be not as you be

Free .. yes Free
Free from the stillness so rigid
Free from the quiet so sorrow
Free from the safety so insecure

Free .. yes Free
Free as the singing nightingale
Free like the breath unrestrained
Free as it must be
