The
maltreatment and cruelty are boxed and wrapped.
Tear filled yesteryears tightly scrunched, not
going anywhere.
White water rides, fanciful flights, new roads
mapped,
Sinking in leather, embracing the night, pitching a
prayer.......
Through the window to the stars that looked
abandoned, alone,
Shining like iced fire, this jewel encrusted dark
sky's attire.
Dreams were spent with scented intent and the
prayer was thrown.
Whatever transpires, I will forever carry the
burden of one desire.
Some thoughts too exquisite to think, sleep without
provocation
But like restless butterflies with quivering wings
they rise to the fore.
Under tender affectionate examination, I find no
explanation,
And so again they settle in slumber, leaving my
faith restored.
