The Cold wet ground
Through the years
and through the tears
we suddenly come to see
the damage we've done
to all those someones
takes root and begins to feed
Waking at night
not just from fright
the cold sweat does remain
the shivers that climb
up and down your spine
a reminder of all that pain
The pain you inflicted
whilst still in your youth
as you struggled to live to a theme
stomping on feelings
of those already reeling
with only one foot in the ring
Oh you will suffer
I promise you that
as what comes indeed goes around
remember this when
you cry for your sins
alone on the cold wet ground
and through the tears
we suddenly come to see
the damage we've done
to all those someones
takes root and begins to feed
Waking at night
not just from fright
the cold sweat does remain
the shivers that climb
up and down your spine
a reminder of all that pain
The pain you inflicted
whilst still in your youth
as you struggled to live to a theme
stomping on feelings
of those already reeling
with only one foot in the ring
Oh you will suffer
I promise you that
as what comes indeed goes around
remember this when
you cry for your sins
alone on the cold wet ground

I hope I can make amends before it's too late. It's a scary thought to be at the edge of the grave without a clear conscience. I read this aloud to myself and it sounds almost like an Irish ballad, sad and true. Really fine job, Scot.

Thank you my friend for the wonderfully insightful comment! as for the Irish ballad, Thanks again , I often try to have a limericky (if that cn be said to be a word) sense to my rhymes, 't always helps with the flow!
Cheers! Scot.
Cheers! Scot.
