Beyond all worldly affairs

I am a slave of the soul

I have company, still forlorn

I await the rage of destiny

*

Searching for joy amidst gloom

I am a lonely wanderer

I have a direction, still derailed

I await the dawn of veracity

*

Envisaging the magic to happen

I am a failed sorcerer

I have a cause, still wayward

I await the feel of ecstasy

*

Battling my own self

I am an inward rebel

I have no weapon, still armed

I await the end of hostility
