Clinging

CLIMBED

Cling the heart discontent
To reclaim resolve
Firstly for heart's intent
Reflecting in anguished eyes
Flourishing a frantic face
At twin skies
Gazing to reclaim a faith divine
Once lost then to black despair
With hope's return
Now tinged blue
With a soulful stair
Climbed

is what inspired the original.
