Amidst the chaos of living
Afraid of freedom and liberty
Being lost and found
In life’s eternity
Darkness blinding in its intensity
Suddenly, sometimes
With a touch of humanity
I find home, a place of safety
Calm, and quiet, and free.
And in the arms of nature
I shall sleep tonight
Lulled by the gentle breeze
By the delicious sounds of a waterfall
Under the supernal blanket
Of a thousand stars
Warm and vast and ecstatic
Enveloped by the smell of seasons
Changing and ever-changing still
Between the caress of the wind and the earth
Like bodies of lovers entwined
In an eternal embrace enshrined
I will be safe tonight.
