Winding Paths

Fast you take me
Winding paths I
Ride these roads on
Which I am bound
Seek the trails for
I make my own

Settled winds scream
Unsettled sands
Relent nothing
Yet go forward
Moving swiftly
Forever lost

Charcoal ivy
Whispered sunshine
Desperate I
Want but nothing
Except to need
What you believe

Fettered fire
Black coals ire
Unsure that this
Peace we seek is
Within our reach
Let me please sleep
