I seek a rebirth from within
only to find words have become a forbidden sin
my heart rings like it is made of tin

Fear of love is my daily baggage
past experience has left me with old damage
I am lost and looking for a lion’s courage

Common sense says to break my restrain
but fires of the past left deep scars of pain
maybe my choice could be easy if I had a brain

Where am I going with this poetic lyric
I guess the best path to travel for the lovesick
should be simple follow the yellow brick


There is no place like home-Hoping happiness for one of my favorite poets. Your words always have inspired me to write I hope you will never stop for when I read your lines I feel like I am over the rainbow.

I enjoyed all the Wizard analogies!
Glad that someone can see past the storms, and embrace the moment of the rainbow.

Ah !  Over the rainbow.  Where a more glorious world is sought.   Where one finds that the things his heart seeks, have always been right where he is.  Where one realizes how precious home is...and that they actually never left.
Enjoyed!
