Empty Grounds 1-6-10

.










                           Every wall I built, lays in ash, upon the ground.  
                       Burning down with it, all the pain my soul harvested.
             There we stand, on empty battle grounds; I, in his trusting arms








P.S. To the reader: I wanted to write more to this, I had been planning to; but i felt, 
that the words here, said everything that was needed. I felt that this was finished 
perfectly, just the way it is. If you disagree with me, please let me know; but 
otherwise, i believe that this is just right.

Rain I like this..very deep and hits home.... It reminds me of my heart and why I wrote and hope you read. The Heart I never had before. It took me 20 min. to write. But you write very deep and precise. I wish I could... I babble on when I write. I wish I was so precise in words like yourself...
