Narrow Path
Santeri Kallio
A narrow path
Now overgrown
Covered by grass
Almost gone
It whispers an invitation to me
Unveils a new direction
Around me the forest sings
The sun gilds the road
Here’s my place
This is my world
Here’s my future
I make my fire here
The trail leads me to the sea
The stones feel so familiar
On this cliff I’ve been before
And heard the song of the waves
The path turns to a road
The river flows into the sea
Around me the forest sings
The sun gilds the road
