Worry of Addiction

Jonathan Cox 1989 (Texas)

Free verse
Torment lies beneath
As your worry starts to spread
Persecution is all you have
In this life you have led
Boundless shackles to this Earth
As your worry starts to spread
Headless is your world
Your innocence is dread
Time is at a cost
As your worry starts to spread
Hope never fades
In this life I have led
Look up above
At Heaven’s golden sky
Faith draws us in
As your worry starts to end.
