I am looking out from behind bars
All that seems free… is also in shackles
Tied down, weighed down, anchored…
Where is the freedom I was promised
–
And then I look out to the horizon
The mighty ocean also yearning
The darkness has lingered too long…
Where is the dawn I was promised
–
I have closed my eyes, sealed my lips
But the mind shouts like thunder
The heart rages like lightening…
Where is the silence I was promised
–
I have been wandering and whirling
Even the North star seemingly lost
I now sit at your doorstep…
Where is the God I was promised
Elusive Silence
