Broken away from my mooring
Adrift on the currents and tide
My homeland is so far away
In the dark isolation, I abide
All lines severed or broken
I can't connect with my tribe
The last open route has sentries
There's no money for the bribe
Risk leads to more uncloaking
Further exposure, I won't dare
One way to end the peril
Light it up like a signal flare
Presently needing an exit
Without benefit, all is lost
Still assessing each situation
Just to tally the pain and cost
Action needed to acquire peace
Being frozen in place is not relief
Driving on through more hardships
Pertinent to eluding more grief
Facing and vanquishing barriers
Builds confidence and strength
Apprehending my own comfort
Worth a voyage of any length
