Balad

As the
hope lashes out the greatest storm
I lost my breath the day you were born;
my flesh and blood turn cold. A single thorn
melting souls into a demonic swarm.

As the
light pierces through the darkest clouds
and preacher’s voice musters the crowds,
time feeds the mushrooms on my shrouds
forever resting all worries and doubts.

As the
sun melts out the ice and rainbow follows the rain,
this ballad sings my story and my pain.

Here are some of my poems:
THE MOUNTAINS
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
ALL BOUT LOVE
A TALE OF A MINNOW AND A WHALE
LONG WAY DOWN 1
LONG WAY DOWN 2
SPIDER QUEEN
MINA'S EULOGY
THE CIRCLE OF LIFE
YOU KNOW IT ALL
CONFESSION OF A HUSBAND
BROKEN DREAM
THE RETURN OF A HERX
CLOSE THE DOORS
IT IS LOVE
BROKEN SOUL
FREEDOM
SPEECHLESS
CHECKOUT POINT
TEENAGE YEARS
A CHILD'S MIND
PINK
PAIN
DARE
LOST
PAINS

Love the photo that goes with such a deep poem.

I thought it would be a good match ;0)

Oh, this one has an echo of brilliance and it rings out the truth of injustice... Deep, dark and slightly dramatic read.

Thank you!
