Unswerving kindness
Brims my hollow girth
In the warm niche of dreams
Expanding, mile by mile

From a ghostly stare
I withdraw, unbound
Into the labyrinth of myself
Stocked with the echoes
Of distant shores

From cold and stern eyes
I scale the highest of hopes
My footsteps
Loyal to their incline
The steep triumphs
I dare to claim

Withdrawn
I expand undisturbed
Striding through an oblivion
My eyes are free to retain
