Where the smoke goes

Sociopolitical poem with a large amount of allegory.

Release me from the damp and cold

And take me where the smoke goes

I wonder if it rains or if it snows 

Where the smoke goes

If the clouds swallow the sun

Or if shadow has been undone

If joy has defeated pain

Or if the pretenders are still the sane

Down within the seas

Or above the skies riding the winds

Where are my decaying dreams

My lack of pride and sense of sin

I wonder if I'll find kindred souls

Where the smoke goes

This is amazing. I love it. I feel this way at times. I can relate. Thank you for a lovely read.
