Free Destiny

With honed desire and sharpened mind
And future thoughts unbending
Forged plans inspired, but plans unwind
Yield battle scars unmending

Hard steel cast off, damp seeds cast down
To fertile ground awaken
A vision of the future sown
In subtle faith unshaken

A perfect gift though born to fight
From Mother Earth still rooted
And choose its path from dark to light
Toward guiding future fruited

Rebirth

Honor, duty, brave tested heart
Admired but cast aside
Resignedly he plays the part
The tears he must abide

Freedom, joy of running tempered
Under emptiness and doubt
Voices of the ancients whispered
Limits of the past cast out

Forgiveness ending solitude
Abandon running, learn to fly
Toward oneness mending gratitude
To be reborn a soul must die

Sun Dance

A greedy lust for warmth and light
The blanket drawn around me
Intoxicating fire bright
Obscures the spark within me

The fuel consumed, the fire quenched
A darkness I remember
Revealing truth that all is drenched
In dim but glowing ember

Inside deep eyes become the same
Beyond a smiles radiance
Together join igniting flame
And burn the growing sun dance
