A typical night
in the middle of a dream
hovering above the clouds
hearing a scream
A struggle ensued
between life and death
emotions roared
at the discovery of the theft
Contentment gone
envy is awry
sparkling trinkets scattered
all left to do is cry
Others have so much
not wanting share
why is this important
need a reason to care
Crouching behind a cloud
going between rage and desire
looking for answer
spirit on fire
Envy is cruel
charring the heart
blood boils for answers
tearing the spirit apart
Passing through rain
beginning to calm down
resting on a rainbow
looking around
Counting blessings
important things in life
hope for the future
a place with no strife
Sliding down the rainbow
contentment is back
surrounded by love
life is on track
