Roots
The poet's heart, with roots in pain
Finds fertile soil to to grow the soul
Through sorrow’s tears; a deeper plane
Perspective gleaned from rough terrain
See diamond hues where most find coal
The poet's heart, with roots in pain
In wrestled thoughts moored near insane
A shadowed bloom that hurt unfolds
Through sorrow’s tears; a deeper plane
Dark blossoms spawned from opened veins
Bend toward the truth with keen control
The poet's heart, with roots in pain
The beauty viewed through fissured panes
Reflect a path that’s scarcely strolled
Through sorrow’s tears; a deeper plane
Those few who delve, find realms - arcane
Kaleidoscopes of wounds extolled
The poet's heart, with roots in pain
Through sorrow’s tears; a deeper plane
