Journey through the Night Pushing past all that in her way stood She raced, unseeingly without a pause, Battling through winding streets full Searching for her destiny, a cause A relentless fever gripped her tight As with a desperate intent she sped, Fierce was her need to finally reach The unknown, towards which she fled; Ran through streets, rooms, crowds, cars Mindful of nothing but to remain whole, Wild eyed, searching, yearning, hoping, To make sense of her life’s silent goal; Did she fly to or from, she didn’t know Was it an escape or a journey more so Be it a desire to leave behind which existed Or a need to search & find that lost in woe As his hand gently shook her awake She was drenched through every pore Hair clung in clumps to her damp scalp As she surfaced from a journey through her soul
