Imprisoned deep within the mind
Darkened spaces you can find
That Grip your senses to the core
Breaking spirit and much more.

Try not let that venom loose
Strangles like a hangman’s noose
Constricts the beauty that is you
All the goodness then subdue.

There are times when life takes hold
It is not weakness then to fold
Seek the help that you deserve
Step back on that upward curve.

Be never one to hold a grudge
A whispered word, wink or nudge
Can send an arrow to the heart
Tear the lives of friends apart.

A pebble tossed into a creek
From the Centre ripples seek
Permeate the shifting sand
Underlying cracks expand.

Silence ought to play a part
Not ignite that fire to start
For future friendships can be burned
And ruin the lives of those concerned.

J. Poet 7 ( @wordverse.me )

Carry joy upon your sleeve

To see true beauty in the air

To hear a robin singing there

To touch a tree and wonder why

To taste a snowflake floating by

To feel sea breeze upon your face

To laugh – your wrinkled lines embrace

To love with all your heart, believe

To carry joy upon your sleeve.
