Analysis of Breaking Free



reflections of remnants buried deep within
luminous to love's demise
clouds of envy seep from within
no one to hear the cries

flashes of light
filter on the floor
cleansing eradicate pain
an empty shell that was, is no more
a life of meaning is gained

Paths open from the deadened veins
of vessels from so long ago
a serene river flows,
showing the way
out of the eye of the storm.
