Around the Corner

Present turbulence Occupying the skies Like a madman's insolence In pursuing his demise Until his madness is silenced. Electric atmosphere Burdened by constant charges Desperately seeking release But peace remains at large For our fears have yet to cease. The heavens overcome by strife Incurred by a low pressure Keeping our spirits in restless plight Thinking there is no answer But the constant echo of repeating trials. However around the corner The sky will clear once again For the sun once more will conquer After the clouds have reached their aim And discharge their load in showers. Knowing such constance Allows the heart not to fail Under the pressure of turbulence For strong its beating remains Faith the key to its endurance. A better atmosphere Is always around the corner Our fears come to cease Unless we lose sight of the future The time of peace will come to be. By CarolineCécile, June 6, 2009.

Poignant, powerful and very true. "a madman's insolence In pursuing his demise Until his madness is silenced" is like a gust of feelings and words.
