You Get What You Give

Inspired by the Prompt Boomerang

Reap what you sow

Sow seeds of grace

Grace under pressure

Pressure pushing down

Down the rabbit hole

Wholehearted hate

Hate to hate you

You can’t escape

Escape your place

Place your hand in mine

Mine for all eternity

Eternity damned to hell

Hell’s no place like home

Home is where the heart is

Is your conscience clear?

Clear the way

Way out of control

Control is an Illusion

Illusion is your master

Master of time and space

Space to grow

Grow what you sow

Sow seeds of hope

Hope you never go

Go peacefully in the end
