Peaceful Shall I Sleep Poem by Lyn Paul

Peaceful Shall I Sleep



When this day comes
I thank you
To walk free
Peaceful shall I sleep

To cut those ties
Finally
Too many bridges burned
Fragments of me lost
Burnouts, scar my mind

Simply to walk free
What a feeling
Free
Like a bird in the wind
A leaf fallen gently from a tree
The sun in my hair
For No longer bound
Soon to be no care

To have been bound
Unknowingly
The mind
So long clouded

The hands tied
Soon to be cut free
Free
To walk the open road

Blinded for so long
But now I see
I shall be...
Truly free

Resurrected I shall be

Peaceful...
Shall I Sleep.

Another well written, meaningful piece. The modern world has become so stressful for the vast majority. Materialism is the modern day religion. We should realise that the raw materials are finite and become more minimalistic. Easier said than done! Death does not bring peace, Lyn, just finality.
