I Wish



I wish my life was free
from sorrow’s all encroaching emptiness
gnawing hungrily at my heart

I wish my life was free
from self-doubt’s sneering voice
calling from the coward’s lair

I wish my life was free
from insecurities clawing need
hiding behind the Phoenix shroud

I wish my spirit could soar
swirling on the breath of life
dancing with my kin unbound

I wish I was no longer shackled
by moribund tattered ashes  
cloying grasp on my soul
