Murky Emotions

Behold! Unto me it will ever so cling, Often wonder why it lingers on with me, Untold, it is to make the church bell ring, Akin to a dark shadow it owns the locked key. Unchain it from my body please, Unfathomable within me are its depth, A quest so forceful will be the need as is, To get to, where fate has it kept. Up above for it we peeked and looked, Down below for it we did search, Alas! The icy claws had it hooked, Solitude the path to rock in from its perch. Forward, I aired with calming mind, Ahead I moved with a stance so soft, Frozen heart now melted to be kind, My feelings they said by now were aloft. Reflect I practiced every morn for sure, Pondered much I for every need, Pure Thought, me knew was the only cure, For now all that is put forward is pure deed. Content am I with my present self, Away has travelled the devilish reign, Calm is my mind content in itself, Murky emotions they say I must abstain. Every morn, now it awaits for me, To a cool breeze and a warm smile, And when I look out so green is the tree, My life they see has just begun to be worthwhile.
