The Final Journey



I try to breathe, i feel no air
the pent up anger, bad thoughts upstairs
My heartbeat heavy, it hurts so much
to understand and come to terms
Why make this now, please go away
I do not want to feel today
No matter though how hard i try
the thoughts still rush like oceans tide
I try to stop, i really do
but now i'm stressed with heart so blue
I close my eyes in vain to hope
That tender pain will surely stop.
but if i just imagine sky
the birds fly past the treetops high
Above my head its peaceful now
and in my heart i feel the clouds
the warmth, the light, the open air
MY GOD .... i think im floating there.......
