Freedom Road

Walking the road to tranquillity

This heart has been torn and twisted

Rebuilt on the path of stability

Caressed and cajoled till it's lifted

Travelling the path of humility

This life that was battered and bruised

Reach out to the minds of hostility

Nurture the hearts of those that abused

Standing on the edge of fragility

Look down on the past that has gone

Dream quiet in depths of anonymity

Seek solace in the soul that's reborn
