• Wandering
    Wandering aimlessly
    through valleys, hills, and far off places
    towards the darkness that guards my soul
    towards the silver scales which shield my heart
    from the cold
    cruel
    world
    towards the dense fog which shrouds my mind
    wandering
    wondering
    wondering if not I should study
    lie
    or cheat
    wondering if I should go to my own world
    where there's no one to anger me
    only dreams
    wondering
    wandering
    wandering through school halls
    alone and afraid
    no one to laugh with
    share with
    or be with
    then
    my life changed forever
    they allowed me to express myself
    my feelings
    my thoughts
    the darkness of my soul filled with golden light
    the silver scales melted away
    opening a new
    warm
    welcoming world
    ,full of adventure and laughter
    the dense fog that shrouds became
    warm sunlight opening new opportunities
    and a new life
    I know to study
    not to lie or cheat
    so I am not wondering
    for I know the path destined for me
    so I am not wandering
    not wondering
    not wandering
    for now as the years progress
    I share my warmth with others
    who have guarded souls
    shielded hearts
    and shrouded minds
    which is no more
    wandering
    wondering
    those days are over
