A Power In My Hands (The Tide and The Throne)

A Power In My Hands (The Tide and The Throne)

A Poem by JayJayBlue
"

About persevering through a troubled life and reaping the rewards at the end

"
I lost everything on the long drive 
As the winter withdraws and summer unwinds
I'll stay clear of the clouds behind me
But the road ahead is worth the fear

I'm watching the fields roll past
The horizon is shrinking slowly at last

I dream of the moment
I'm running on the sands
The world alone and only mine
Resting in the palms of my hands

Maybe I'll escape with the rest of the hive
As my thoughts come alive, in overdrive
I'm spending the time wishing for the end
But for now I'll be weightless

I'm watching the sun slowly set
But the end isn't here yet 

I dream of the moment
I'm running on the sands
The world alone and only mine
Resting in the palms of my hands

Here I feel the sea breeze drift across 
And now I'm sure I'm beyond the storm
Can I enter paradise, become reborn?
I 've never felt like this before 

I've now found the moment
The feel of my feet on the sands
The ocean, my throne and now mine
Power in the palms of my hands

I've now found the moment
The feel of my feet on the sands
The ocean, my throne and now mine
Power in the palms of my hands

It is in that stillness the true power lies. Loved this write, Jay Jay.
