Mend With The Wind | Poem

Mend With The Wind

I've been to this place before
Seen myself go through that door
I'll say to you now

Sometimes in the night I can see
But its only here for me
Don't run away

I've been to the top of this land
Seen the blood stains on my hands
What was it for?

Let's reach above
For the stars held in the sky
And maybe we can survive

Promises have been broken
Still the fight never ends
Hearts have been broken
Still they'll mend with the wind

- Robert Patrick Jackson
