A Heart's Anthem

A walk down the street
I hear a whisper in my ear
Underneath my feet
Silent leaves, hint you are near

What is being free?
Outside of my reach
Is a life intended for me
To live, away from search

I am homesick, as I sojourn
How long more, I asked
Before I can, or you, return
Where death, is finally unmasked

I think of home
Wish for sooner days
All the mist and foam
Turns swiftly, into glitter rays

The dark closes in again
One day passes, I quiver 
No wait shall be in vain
This time, we are nearer 

I long for home
