Lies my secret, hidden denply,
Sheltered safe by rugged guardians,
Towering o'er my waters uuoeply.
AH the prying" world may wonder.
Puzzle o'er, my fiery jiast life
When my Bhell wus.rent asunder,
Through, my soul's tempestuous strife.
i'onde'r o'er my angry youthtlme,
Dark and glowerfng, void of gladness,
"Till a sudden burst 6f anger
Ixosed my boiling eethlng, madness.
'Till my soul was spent wilh' fury,, '
Left me ahakoji, weak, and helpless,
Left my body unsupported.
And It crashed In, spent and lifeless.
Crashed Into that pit of fury
Made when angered aago was'grentost.
Fitting punishment of sinners . "
J'Lle thou In the bed thou madest."
Father Time and Mother Nature
Since; have kindly hid my stoy,
Ccqled with melting snows of madness,
Clothed me with majestic glory
Calm, serene, with cool Indifference,
I regard your awe and wonder.
For my youthful folly's hidden,
By my stately, sublime, grandeur..
