    Tangled Garden

    My poets heart has stilled in beat
    Left in the coffer of tomorrow
    Where is the beauty of spring
    It’s cold outside and gray as I feel
    Words lash out fueled by old wounds
    Bottled up poison waiting to implode
    You do not know the sunrises I’ve faced 
    Dying to penetrate your walls
    Wanting to be a better friend
    Not knowing how 
    I’m like a flower begging for your water
    Searching for a key to open the gates barred shut
    I can’t do this alone
    Often times I am cold and harsh
    But inside I am just like you
    Wanting and wanting for the circle to be built of strength
    Instead of tumbling cards bowing to lifes cruel hand
    My roots are tangled in your garden
    Buried under the weeping willow tree
    Waiting to intertwine with sleeping scarlett’s tara
