" Shatterfall "

 Shatterfall

Shatterfall, the wind too weary

From crowds encumbered there

Alone the darkness, sad and bleary

The crowds too large to care

The crowds still gather, grow each day

So many lost along the way

As fame fools some and glory too

The clamors rise in grayish hue

All inspirations lost to din

The heart decides to seek within

For fame and glory, only slew

Drive sanity through depth to true

But, now, the teeming masses whole

Amass the silence of the soul

Wherefore, the soul cries out its heart

To find the way and, then, restart

Soul sings such songs as wills the ways

Eyes closed, heart opens, body sways

Then, follows there, in comfort dark

Vast shining vistas, sere and stark

For now is seen the vain false hope

Of crowds that teem on broken slope

But way is seen beyond the dearth

It’s seen to be pure, fallow earth

And further on is seen the field

That only seeds of soul can yield

No longer lost to touch and feel

No longer tossed, the soul is healed

It lies all 'round, soul can't confirm

But guides eternity to term
