Working through the emotions
Relocating several times
To leave the past far behind
Only to have reminders
Thrust upon him without ending
By those who will not forget
Jealousy knows no bounds
In the hands of a bitter soul
Yet still
Onward and upward
Over the mountains of disbelief
To rise above the naysayers
Above the angry words
To rise and stay above
The clouds of doom
Wrung from the hands
Of those who show no mercy
To know the peaceful sunshine
Of a clear conscience
In summer sunshine
Taking time for making rhyme,
For the mind, sublime
With the right mentor
What may seem impossible
Many people do
Distraction techniques
Finding fault with someone else
Hiding what you are
Smoke screen of lies and half truths
Destroys our relationship
It matters not what clothes you wear
It matters not what colour hair
It matters not what things you say
It matters not how much you pay
It matters not how much you learn
It matters more what you discern
For wisdom’s eloquence will speak
Provided that the heart is meek
