For the keeper of the prayers,
every morn I bow my head...
and beg a healing do begin
and taste the salt of tear instead.

Every night? I'm weary, fall...
forgetting spirit ten foot tall.
I curl up, with knees to chin,
fetal me, begin again?

Tell me I can be reborn.
My fist boasts fingers--
I'm forlorn...
Tell me I am welcome here,
(doubt in linger)
INJUN CORN...

Specks, there are,
of black and red,
maroon,
becoming
colors dead.

Green leaf turning
yellowed sheaf--
to think, I once
thought change--relief.

sigh...it's been a while good poet people!

FINGERS TO TYPE RHYME DIVINE WITH
FINGERS TO PEN PROSED PERFECTION WITH
FINGERS TO WRITE ME EMAILS (hehehe)

for handing you a heart worth breaking.

And my answer to this is "yes", to be reborn is always in a person's control unless they hand their control to another.  Serenity, this was really sad, but nice to see you though.
