Clarity

untested waters ripple, strands of light flash in the beauty of my mind --- the past dwelt in the corner debilitating disabling untethering, I was thrown back in time (bad happens to the good and the good happens to the bad) visiting sins replayed in my head reminding me shaming me, the circle went around but I remembered the dashes of hope the splashes of love all that I had shared all that I had lost but going round and round the strings of sanity were unbound, the white rabbit called for me reality was paper dolls burning in the pit I held fast as the standard ripped falling into delusion I lay in the mire for a millennium clarity returned with a song the dance of life flooded my veins my being declared whole --- the clear untested waters of my mind ripple in wonderment, today has returned with no fear of joy

Well written Jayne! Hope and love often walk hand in hand. There is a part where I also sense a feeling of inverted karma. Love the last stanza, especially. a7rating. // paul
