Escape

Loom and doom escapes the rational mind.. Darkness oozes .. A menace to itself A fearful mind self destructs As fear separates itself from logical thinking.. It creates a world of its own.. Where there lies hopelessness Chaotic events unfold.. Seen through the eyes of fear Lying on a bed of needles Pricked by a thorn of a rose Where rose petals no longer have a scent When one escapes.. One must return to love Wipe the tears of anguish To replace them with tears of joy.. Shackles and chains unlocked Freedom gained .. Burden lifted Take a breath of fresh air.. Breathe the breath of life.. As the heart is opened to receive love.. A threshold of light illuminates.. Embraced you are.. Held in the loving arms of Divinity.. Lifted you are Carried by the Divine..

As they say, 'Fear feeds on itself.' Great escape, Robertina! Light and Joy, Gershon
