Glass House
Behind a glass house, penetration is denied
Blurred by the ray of sunshine
Gleaming in my eye
Safe, Behind this, a protective place
A shield through the test
A spot to finally rest
No doors, no windows, no front , no back
A stone lay in my hand
Destiny now planned
The rock sails straight, though scattered glass
A collage of speckled dance
No noise, a silent trance
Access now assessable, vulnerable to all
No haze, to block my sight now
A step, a mile, a vow
To interact,
Experience
A world so unknown
To feel the light
The treats,
The fears
Emotions run scared, anew
To yearn, to want
To need in true
Desire for the glass returns
A shelter from myself
To hide the hurt, the pain
To hide in self and doubt
The time to feel, the time is now
To turn and run, you would be found.
A hit so hard, you loose your breath
Fight for sanction, fight for rest.
The time is done, you had your chance
You feel the empty space, abreast
Your tears now dry, your head now clear
You smile, you keep the feelings near
For now you understand the rays
For nothing can take it away
It's there to wrap your arms around
And guide you gently to the ground
I now will never be alone
Darkness back and in the light I lost,
Yet won a wondrous place
To keep forever, with God's grace
Behind a glass house, penetration is denied
Blurred by the ray of sunshine
Gleaming in my eye
