Red flags disguised
amongst the roses

I can’t lie
i was distracted
by
her many poses

Quick

water down the fantasy  
can anyone
being some hoses

For

My dry eyes

had me thinking
“This is great”

Until I met her gaze
and realized
like the rest
she’s the same

To one day
meet
a kinder love

So I won’t
have to
feel
the loneliest
in my pain

I walk along
the stoney roads
where
pebbles seem to scatter
as I step

My lift
cloud be
a complement
to her wings

But it is the earth
to whom I’m kept

As she has me
looking up
just to find myself
looking down

Chained to the roots
of all the grounds
In which I wish to fly

It’s funny…

On this level
i can see
just where
all those pebbles hide

Once I lay with her

dare I never wake again


So I don’t have to go out

and start the search again

I’ve got the sun and the stars

To orbit around my feet


In  their shine

The  many answers that I seek


So I ask you god

Though I dare to speak


Do I fulfill the prophecy

That you wrote for me


The one that  you did  write for me?


I’ve opened my mind

Yet sometimes I still fail to see


What’s right in front of me


So


As I go forth

I still give thanks to her love

Despite the burning sands


And


Scorching heat



Throw me your toughest stones

And I’ll scrap with broken hands


But


Won’t be beat


Even if I have to crawl to the end

On my teeth


For


If I have  known a faith to crumble

Then surly I can meet a faith that stands



At her alter

Now

Just to deeper understand



Falling forward Into the trust

Of

Unknown hands
