Sitting on the wind
The length and width
Of the aerial road
Unknown to the stars
Indifferent to me
Hold your tongue!
But hallelujah
Finds its way
Through clenched teeth
My valley is an ocean
My winter a sea
Crashing, beating, thunder
Lungs scream to breathe
Choices, what choices?
Upon the narrow road
Is freedom forgetful
I wait
I walk
I fall
Sitting on the river
You make me lie down
I see it, the light
I feel it, the sun
Perplexed but not despairing
Afflicted but not crushed
Persecuted but not struck down
Struck down but not destroyed
Destroyed but never dead
Source of life
My blood flows
like a river
my heart beats
like a drum
it never ends
Take my body
My soul is His
Take my land
My home is Him
Take my gold
He is my source
Take my life
I will live on
Sitting on the clouds
Till the next chapter,
Katya
