What's the Story?A Poem by RebeccaThere is a back-story to all of this There is a prologue left unwritten There is an epilogue leaving more to be said Then there is the rose colored pain Then there is the spiky thorns Then there is a phoenix healing with his tears I watch a baby dragon fly I watch for the back-story There are two sides to the coin, you see? We were made different so we can make a difference But some kill, and some heal I freak out in silence I sway back and forth And I scream, and I scream, and I scream Find the story behind my silence Find the reasons for all my questions The grass is green everwhere really. You can stop searching. The best isn't next door, it isn't halfway across the globe, its not in outer-space You can hold green in your heart That's where the story starts and begins I promise. The neighbors have a green field And so do you And you can flip on either one You can run as fast as you can and you can make the wilderness your home I promise. There is a back-story. There is a reason I am writing this. It's because I am Called to. I am called to write with God's Pen And I want to tell you His Story The story that is the foundation of every other story. He died and rose from the dead He was born after living for zillions of eternities He is God of Christmas and Easter He promises forever Eternity He promises that death is just a myth. So open your eyes and ears. Really listen. Hear the sound of the rain? Those are His tears, those are His songs, and the thunder is His Love And I write. I write and its like photography: the difference is the angle in which you look at the story And I promise It goes on and on I'll stop being so afraid of that Afraid of the endlessness The fear will vanish It is worse than the fear of death It is the fear of finding oneself lost, not sure which way to turn, which story to write, How to get home I promise: Home is where the grass is green and tall filled with budding flowers. Home is where you can do the things that bring you joy, where you are happy. So delve in. What is the story?
