Nature/Nurture /Trauma/Torture

The trees slow dance with the breeze, they sway,

In birdsong, the gossip of a brand-new day

The sun yawns across the sky, her lazy endurance,

The cycle of life, her golden assurance.  

But trauma, my path, with its silent tread

The sun left behind what hope lay ahead

The pain is the breath between prayers in my head

Words dark and ugly, ignored, unsaid.

The Static of my memoires, fragment, out of tune,

A garden of flowers, with nowhere to bloom.
