Within the Depths of my Mind 01/28/09

Within the depths of my mind
I still hope to find
A freedom that lives in the youthful child within…
Get my traveling feet a moving on out of this place.
Got to find higher ground, a better space.
This tumultuous life we live
Everyone always taking something, so I need more to give
Filled with change and crazy things we cannot understand
But also wonder and beauty within the land.
Roamin free like a cloud up above
Cant you just feel the love
Raining down on me from all around
Beautiful creatures, they are all found
Within the depths of the wilderness within my mind.
Want to sing out
And let the world know of what I have learned in this journey
Difficulty, pain, and suffering,
But also love, friendship, and perseverance
Beauty lives within
This I know, and will continue to defend.
Someday, things will be easy and we will all enter the Garden once again.
These things that eat and feed on my soul and wellbeing
Will all be reconciled within the depths of my unclouded mind.
Set free at last, reunited with my ancestors who respected this land and all of the Creator’s children-sons and daughters, flora and fauna, stonepeople, and the blood of our spirits that flows within the lifewaters of the Earth.
