One Step



My Cradle forged in perfect peace
Blankets swaddle me in – a mothers fleece
No awareness, conception, or dream of “out-side”
Umbilical existence – I have no need to hide

One Step

Then torn into the harsh of cold
Shaken and scattered by a place - so old
My dwelling now – the void
It lacking love, compassion, hope but wrought with fear

One Step for us
One Step

We move from birth to broken earth


From there to here
Never returning
Forgetting what there was

Yet

Always longing for something more
