Solitude in trees
jplenio / pixabay

Take me away darling
away from the strife,
bloodshed and war
waging outside, to
your dwelling.

I’d go anywhere
you wanted me to,
as I await for
your hand, ready
to ride into the sunset.

I need you darling,
for you are the
sanity to my
insanity, within
my soul.

Take me away darling
away from the strife,
to the calm and quiet
woods, to the home
where I belong.
