The Restless Poet

What would my mind be
if it was set free?
Mindscapes –
Cartographies of my inner depths.

Where twists and turns unfold,
on ledges of pain and hurt.
Hidden landmarks await
in a landscape so vast.

Towering mountains of my treasured mind
beckoning me to climb,
To rise out of my past
and find peace…less calamity.

The great expanse yields,
a meadow of gold, beautiful designs,
A river so fresh,
quenching my soul, freeing my mind.

I’m lost in these
contours of my consciousness,
awaiting exploration of uncharted worlds
and happiness.
