Where the Green Grass Grows

I wrote this about going through life stressors and conquering them


Pain flows in tears as I cry
Through the torment, I fathom why oh why
Reasoning fear with the hate
Callous calls from heartless souls I am left without answers
As try to reach out to defeat their cancer

Assuredly I move forward with weights tied to my hands and as I do
The past comes back to haunt me
From imprisoned grasps
As ghosts from the past how daunting they ensue

To haunt me
Call and
Scream
As I fight them all back
Insignificant souls
Wretched sleuths

The faceless enemy
Taunts and jeers
From every direction
Hiding behind that fear they shed and mask

Tormented path moves under my feet
As I try in vain to move
It becomes my reasoning
Fear evades my logic
As my heart begins to yearns

For the wondrous sky
To fly way up high
Yet all I see
Is the guilty go free

And I am left wondering
Why not me?

All I have
Is all I need
Yet what I need
Is the end to this seed
Let me go free
Willingly

Sowing freedom as the green grass grows
Full of hope and yearning
As I bury these maddening  sorrows
In patches and in rows
Streaming from my heart and my soul
I say goodbye to all you now
Heartless ghosts
From seasons ago

Having evaded my fears
I rest these tears
As hope now flows
In row upon row
Where the green grass now grows
