A Spiritual Walk

"A Spiritual walk" as i lay here tonight i fight in my plight blooming within the night like a beautiful dance across the light the universe within my sight a mixture of both pain & gain this is where life will remain to add color to the future the giver gave his name to escape the knowledge that was plain freedom is what we gained but only to remember is what was asked remember remember the past to be thankful for what lasts love in you, shall not pass despite the fragile frame and the hallow shame you are what remains t can help release you from these chains and give you a purpose to smile when it rains thunder sparks the soul you just have to hear it roll and with the sands of time and warmth called life patience can cleanse the back of knifes by day and by night we are usually out of sight fighting for whats right or faithful in Gods sight the kingdoms in the heart this is the focus of our art love is the footprints of our start...... -John Braxton Griswold
