Ocean of Fear
February 2, 2014
When the sky had fallen
And the Earth sang out loud with cries,
An angel talked to me.
I can give you victory and triumph;
You’ll never have to worry.
Paradise is what your life will be,
But you’ll be stuck with a white piece of paper all your
life
I looked up.
When the skies were green
And the grass was blue,
The ferocious beast came to me.
Come with me creature of the East;
I’ll teach you what life is about.
We crossed a path full of snakes
And a river of blood.
Your prize you’ll get after the challenge has been made
An apple
Oh my dear,
Don’t let them lead me
To the ocean of fear.

This is a beautiful peace of work, and I love it! It is simple yet complex, and deep at the same time.

Emotions are words and words are sometimes emotions.

What a descriptive piece of poetry with quite vivid images. I think Robert Frost would be very proud, Francheska!
