resolution

i will wait in the quiet and when my chance it comes i'll spring
dive right in,
through the gate
into a quiet alpine lake
i know the road that leads to there,
escape the mean barbs and stings of crazies who esteem to know it all
and yet
they cannot get
out of their own regret,
so they lash out hate and vinegar spray,
spews of words askew
not realizing they damage every nerve of their own view

and so with mine own extreme regret i rise to fly
away with me, i'll take the fall
if i fail in my escape
to inhale, suck each and every precious breath
before the poison words of hate
that emanate from those lips and angry tongues
who would with one final thrust of waste
take me down with them into forbidden lakes, polluted drenched

i will not gather tons of grime and help to spread the rhyme
i'd rather sow those seeds of love
than murder my own body
for i desire life and peace

i must let foolhardiness loom away from my view
the death of dark and morbid mock eschew
i must make haste to walk in new,
light each day my soul amuse
