A Burning Seed

“A Burning Seed” Surrounded by love, By I still cant move. My vinyl is spinning, Without the needle in the groove. My thoughts and passions burn without a chance of escape, Overwhelmed with chains I fear will never break. I want to stand tall and burst into sprint. . . But reality dawns like a permanent splint. Sunshine is irrelevant, Contentment seems so far, Always being pipped at the post, Or putting it over the bar. I see success around me every single day, My only peace and sanity when I hear my children play. Their my only thread of platinum in a cosmos made of coal, There strength, Courage, And happiness will remain my only goal.
