No
No, I will not be treated this way
The stone clouds approach, pressing in and I am a broken branch
A wingless bird and the second chance is breathless and quite distant. I don't dare.
I may be bitter herbs and thorn in hand, but I am not the salt in your water.
Why do you smash the cup? why is there feedback starting the speakers?
these stone clouds, they always win. He has already stepped in! lift your well lit eyes!
you can see with your own two! I thought my hand full of thorns so I dared not lend it, but you lean on rotten stumps. NO
No, I will not let you treat me this way.
I approach stone clouds thorn free, and press out the bitter herbs.
I am not standing or forcing and I'm thankful. Help comes from those I know who can.
These birds tell the truth with lit eyes, looking up and carrying whole branches. Second chances.
Breath!
Salt water rain only in taffy land and cups un-smashed.
I feel and the harsh curbs my execution, but I'll feel to the fullest.
I'll still be here when you get back, but I'll be older…and so will He.
