Stinger, And

Stinger stuck in the finger
Peering inside is a road not taken
How much more will it linger
And how much longer, your walls unshaken

With the need to atone
Feeding one for self protection
But in this life so alone
Leading you to constant re-direction

How I long for you to be free
Shot off into a glorious sunrise
Cast off anew on a shimmering sea
And to know the true prize

Oh how freeing is The Truth
How empty is our own meaning
He will give you reason to sink your tooth
And set your feet on solid ground, gleaming
