I Begged

Grief
|
I preferred to sleep beneath warm sand than hope in vain you hold my hand,
To grow upon a budding tree than face the eyes beholding me.
Floating upon the waves at sea are ashes that were once called me,
I chose to be one with quiet air than interact with naught to share.
I begged of the trees to shelter me the leaves only shook as they laughed at me,
I tried to hide in a mountain cave the mountain bid me find my grave.
I looked to the sun that I might be warmed the sun mocked whilst instead it harmed.
My soul now floats to distant lands being always welcomed in the sand,
The world which scorned won't understand that I am the mind of whom they banned.
I am the flowers upon the trees I am the fragrant air they breathe,
I am the roaring waves perceived I am the ashes tossed at sea.
I am the essence of despair become the beauty everywhere,
I am the sleep beneath the sand in case you need a helping hand.
