A knock on the door
leaves you sweating inside
but you tempt it again
and your dream is over
Following the sound
of who maybe outside
the lightning breaks
and your dream is over
Walking through the door
that has kept you inside
you run for the figure
and your heart is over
Grasping at the arms
of material things
that leave you hanging
and your soul is over
Yet with one little step
you can dangle your fate
control your fears
and your anger is over
Walk your own path
and find your own way
soon you'll be free
and your pain is over.

I have to agree with James here. Another gem you have written.

It is a blessing to have wings for words and passion in pen.

Agree with you I do, as always. I think sometimes people wait for someone else or something else to take pain and sadness away......when the power is within ourselves.........

Michael,
This raised some thoughts in me, thanks for the offering of pure poetry.

is it true?
we renew
in all we do
finding the lost
not counting the cost
seeing the host
to make gold of dross

if that's the case
we can erase
pain and its trace
moving along
to sing a song
soaring aloft
where angels belong

Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
