“Among The Known”

{ Repost }

Pure of soul
Deep of heart
Among the known
But wander in darkness
Doubting footsteps
For what tomorrow might bring
Wandering down the valley of hope
Down rocky mountain
Where bright sunbeam fall
Pure of soul
Deep of heart
Among the known
But still wander in the dark
Steps limp now
Caring the burden of life
Curved swords and spears of hate
Wounded… bruised heart
Lost the road of trust
But pure of soul
Deep of heart
Among the known
Nature never let her down
Make her act like a clown
With tears and a frown
Peering eyes
Leaving no trace
Of life!!

Sweet and somber, like a egg-shell porcelain figurine made of words born from hurt, yet with a timid aroma of happines that need to be forced out by a tender greeting.
Very good.

So glad you reposted this one, Tinka... The accompanying picture makes it just so poignant and personal. I love the repeated lines, like footsteps echoing throughout this hallowed piece. So reverential and yet regret-tinged. Get your aspiration over here PDQ and let's crack open the Amarula! That will put all to rights... at least, for another day... :)) I think this is one of your best, BTW... Bless you, Kate xx
