Old Ways
by Darling

Acid burning
Acid churning
Old ways beckoning

Stomach growling
Stomach fearing
Old ways beckoning

Heart burning
Heart yearning
Old ways beckoning

Call for the new
call for life
utters strongly in my throat

Mind clear
Mind determined
new adventures at hand

Clarity of heart
Clarity of desire
Knowingness of what must be and Is

Yet old ways die hard
They burn
they drip
they scream for their own existence
to continue

Drip all you want
Burn my insides
Growl until the screams grow hoarse

But I am leaping again
into a new horizon
into a new Breath
for the new ways are beckoning
and you will finally sense
that there was no need to fear
this Leap
