Protected Paradise
Sadness bleeds through these words
crumbling down onto me
I'm a mountain holding on
rock solid
as the world throws down
an avalanche of anger
I'm no stranger to the sun
burning hot these trying eyes
breathe, I hear the whispers
for life is too short
to reign or rain
on someone else
and their protected paradise
crumbling down onto me
I'm a mountain holding on
rock solid
as the world throws down
an avalanche of anger
I'm no stranger to the sun
burning hot these trying eyes
breathe, I hear the whispers
for life is too short
to reign or rain
on someone else
and their protected paradise

Its all about the energy, isn't it? Sometimes it's murky. Sending hugs, my friend

"an avalanche of anger" ... great line ... love the structure of this ... six line stanza ... couplet ... five line stanza ... makes for great flow ...

A protected paradise is to be respected. This is evident, I believe, in the last stanza. But this is fine work from beginning to end. Favorite lines:
I'm no stranger to the sun
burning hot these trying eyes
Your vision is 20/20 here. Love your work, JusTim!

“for life is too short

Indeed my friend. Having felt anxiety myself, sometimes we just need to breathe it in and let it go.

Thank you Nari...I don't know if it has gotten worse lately or I've just noticed it more.
