Strange Lands

I have walked with strangers in strange lands
I have seen those lands through their eyes of madness
and not been afraid to keep looking

I have sat with them and shared their songs of insanity
and not been too frightened to listen

But the land that you live in is far too strange for me to understand
and your song is too discordant for my ears
I never want to walk with you in your land
or hear your song again.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
