The journey

On the run for so long. Escaping the well known. Chasing the unknown. Breaking down the barriers within. Letting loose the strangled self. Polishing the shell, but tarnishing the core. Excluding a prisoner from all rational thought. Closing in; moving out. A burial with breath still strong.
A rusty shovel with broken handles is all that's there. Remove the dirt, unleash the spirit, silence the longing for an escape.
Destination unknown, but nevertheless felt. No need for a map, just by instinct led. No fear no more. No regrets no more. Reflections and musings. Lessons learned and guilt absolved. A wiser mind; a kinder heart; a stronger soul.
An acceptance of fate. A withdrawal from shame. A closeness never felt, to all that matters and doesn't. Blessings and curses forever embraced.
For every breath there seems, a beauty of sorts.
