My Place

My place


I have escaped my entombment
From my confined place
Now I shall fight with thought
And words to find that which
Threatens in my internal space
To be that one who will create
A pleasant place within
Once being again the whole one
In the world of my space

Quote 
I have dug my way 
Out the ground
With palm and fist many times
My whole life has been
One burial after another
I will find my way
Out of you just fine
