40 years of tunneling into this granite life Chisel is dull and sore Carve out one more heart Smooth and perfect Tunnel without end One small stick of dynamite can end the suffering Blow away all the imperfections you seem to write away Bless me Father for I was born Into tragedy and without sin Why is it so hard to find one piece of happiness One tiny fraction of joy An ingot of love A fable I've written to ease the pain of my reality |

A wonderfully written lament, bravo Peace of mind can only be achieved when we find peace with self |

Very well written melancholy reflection on life. I enjoyed the read and the emotion. Eric |
