Our tethered souls

the echo of my fears can't reach me here

Our tethered souls

I will endure until I find a place where

shadows never last,

my beauty is my past,

where happiness is found by all

and no Body ever has to fall.

Where trust is raised

and praised

until above and beyond our farthest trails.

I will endure until I am saved from myself

and taken somewhere else,

where I hide in the light and all its grace,

never losing sight.

Only then I decide I could die like that,

in a place where broken hearts are healed,

the universe collapsed with its secrets sealed,

with all its buried elegance and wisdom

remembered....

our souls done being slaved, engraved and finally

saved

....but never untethered.

About the Creator

Jess S

One day I will be myself again,

and this darkness might come to an end,

and all doubt will cease,

and all strength will rise.

One day my tainted memories will be left behind,

and I will be able to see the world through a clear lens.
