Palace of Light

Palace Of Light With every lung full of air, With each second of despair. With every hour that pass, When every sound exploding glass. For every soul that scares alone, Electric shock at every tone. Every heart beat that carries pain, For every head bowed down in shame. When love has left and your all alone, When silent screams bring down your home. Fear not my brother. . .This script is for you, There is a place where your voice rings true. Bottle bottom down find strength in your feet, Take your first step there are “Angels” To greet. This palace of light shines down tunnels black, Will arm you with tools to forge your own track. A hotel for hero’s, A familiar place to be. Explanation is paramount, Understanding is key. Its not a place of fiction, Nor a place that time forgot. This palace is much closer, My brother fear not. Your journey will be woeful, Courage you’ll need to find. “Angels” take your hand, As they explore your mind. See of your rage and anger, Inner demons they will press. This palace is Audley court. . . This palace is Combat Stress.

- I'm glad you posted it - I believe it means a lot for yourself (I post my poems for myself, and for those who "bothered" to read my work :))
