I found my silver lining tucked away in sharded glass
Stacks on stacks of broken dreams, unfinished goals, uncharted maps
They said that I could find it
If only I could breathe
If only I could hold my breath
Fall on bended knees
‘It works if you work it’
The slogan of the day
So if what works for you don’t work for me
More fool to shame
I tried and tried those pretty lies
for more than I could rest
Each one was more pretentious
more deceiving than the next
So low beheld before my eyes
A mountain I can’t hide
A kaleidoscope of sharded glass
The mirror that don’t lie
My silver lining is so complex
So simple in my mind
So overwhelming
So unbelieving
So cruel
Yet so divine
As I wade on down that river bend
Beyond the trodden path
Over the mountains
And through the woods
Kingdom Come at last
I’ll carry my kaleidoscope
No more a cross to bear
Creative of you… Well done
