My Mind

To others I鈥檓 just the poetry girl,

What they don鈥檛 see is the real pearl.

I鈥檒l be glad when this is all over,

A world without drama or trauma,

No need for the protector of truth,

There is no price to freedom,

It鈥檚 free 鈥 It鈥檚 there.

I鈥檒l be glad when the end game is over,

No spilled blood or hurt pride,

All the dried blood forms red clover,

No burning bridges, no river aflame.

I鈥檒l be glad when everything begins again,

I鈥檒l be traveling the world with a blank paper heart,

Your past never affecting your future,

You are a blank page.

I鈥檒l be glad when my real pearl shines,

Like diamonds in the sky,

I鈥檒l be glad when this world is liquid crystal,

Pure as water, simple as snow.

I鈥檒l be glad when everyone鈥檚 a white ruby,

No competition, everyone shines,

Like scattered stars in the night sky.
