Life is want and hunger
Seeking shelter from the rain
The rage to tear asunder
That which causes pain
In the humming center
Is the still humble fact
The life we enter
Is harder when we react
Our decisions
Unquiet the soul
Self derision
Takes it’s toll
You cannot win
That which is not contested
Freedom begins
When you are divested
The sound
Of the water
The taste of the wind
The embrace of your beloved
Tomorrow begins
