The Journey Poem by Rebecca Dalmaso

There are things you dont see because you look with your heart
Blind and confused until you go back to the start
The pain runs through your body to your mind
Later to be pain left behind
First you must sweat from the heat of your tears
Knock down the barriers that hold up your fears
Learn again to care and to trust
Hold back the love and carry the lust
I wish I was something that did not feel pain
Like the ocean a flower or someone Insane
One step forward adds another mile
On the road you must travel to keep a smile
There is no stranger like the stranger within
The road is too bumpy and the map is too thin.
