    Believe




    These feelings restrained by my limited words
    pace within their cells waiting for escape.
    I am tortured by the curse of silence
    as I struggle to speak my heart.

    The storm brews all around,
    swirling, creating chaos everywhere-
    thoughts, feelings, fears, and wonders fill the air
    ...
    leaving us wandering and confused.

    The world presses down, unforgiving and unyielding,
    as if trying to diminish every spark of hope
    by weighing us down with choices and risks.
    It is there where we must find our strength.

    I see behind the curtain of temptation,
    through the thin veil of uncertainty
    and over the frail walls of fear
    because I believe in you.

    Of all the things this world can offer or take,
    all I want is your hand in mine.

    Love to see you back, still love your poetry, and fond of your personality. Hope all is well. Write on.....................Tlady

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
