Layed To Rest Poem by Christopher Thor Britt

Layed To Rest



The distant sound of foot fall as
I trod a barren land
Diminished to an echo thru my heart

My search thru pain and tears has
Brought me to this tearful stand
Encompassed by the fears of a new start

Grieve I for this heart of love
Forever laid to rest
Mine emptiness, in part, a hardened shell

The struggle to surrender fights
Temptation to resist
Who will be the victor? Time will tell.
