Projection of Fear

Projection of fear

Beyond the break of clouds in the sky,
I am looking down in my flight
Watching everything you do, from a distance
A place where you can never reach me
A place I have found to be free
And in this place, I ask for many things
As I know, even miracles do happen
But, the biggest miracle is up to YOU
Something that has never happened
However, this life now, is only one life
Time we are granted, with choices to make
I will not plead with you, but I have my ways
My faith that carries me through the days
It was not you that set my soul free
It was every step I took for years, it was ME
So, you know what to do with burdens you carry
Time will tell and the skies are now clear
Meanwhile, I will never be grounded…
       -  In your projection of fear  -

I love this. What other's inflict on us is their burden to carry as born from their perspective and this poem dramatically grows its feeling while delivering hard-fought and learned truth. A victory poem! Way to write ... CayCay

Well said Heidi, you'd think people would do something useful with their lives instead of stalking others. Tom.
