Wayland Bunch Poet Quatern

Greener Pastures

Fleeing into dark night, I run
A truth not wholly accepted
A promise breaking as I write
One story ends, one rejected

I question my decisions now
Fleeing into dark night, I run
Rejection sets me on my way
As to wishes I did have one

The broken mirror reflects all
A dream remaining but no time
Fleeing into dark night,  I run
Only one madness to my rhyme

I run far, always looking back
No hope remains under the sun
Great sentiment jolted off track
Fleeing into dark night, I run

Timothy Hicks March 22, 2013 at 9:37 AM I can feel the desperation in this... running into the vast unknown hoping it's for the best. The part about great sentiments going out of whack... I feel I can relate to that. What started off as something special and sentimental to you is now slowly losing it's meaning...

Andrea Dietrich February 27, 2013 at 4:30 PM I like the contrast of green pastures for the title and the lines on fleeing into dark night . very unique! Wayland Bunch February 27, 2013 at 8:41 PM Thank you so much for taking the time to read and for your comment.
