225. The Road Upon That Which I Stand

Published on 3 June 2017 at 19:00

The road upon that which I stand

has many, many twists and turns.

Though, it is still a part of the land,

a land that has yet to be burned.

All aside the path that lay ahead,

the path I fled from; tomorrow,

I see angels among flower beds,

who wish to take away my sorrow.

I am not sure what that means,

but it means something, I’m sure.

And even if you haven’t seen what I’ve seen,

just know that there is a future.

The road upon that which I stand

has many ups, and many more downs,

but though I am just a simple man,

I can still turn things around.

Beside the road I travel down,

do the flowers ever grow upright.

They no longer wilt, nor drown; 

always smiling when there’s sunlight.

Oh, how I wish there was a way

to bring those flowers onto this path,

to show them how not to be afraid;

to look beyond the aftermath.

The end upon that which I’ve neared,

I wish not for it to last forever;

for the end is not our greatest fear,

but rather it is not remaining together,

on the road upon that which I stand.
