I know you now
Sometimes a lesson is learned
Too late
We all make mistakes
Only some plead for forgiveness
I know you now
And the flowers that you love
Are fragile just like you
I was a brute
Too caught up in my own pain
To see you were hurting too
I know you now

I've made my mistakes
I know you now
And the lesson that was learned
Was a lesson too late
on my weary way
trudging through rough sodden fields
carrying a verse

I've been stuck in this hole
that I keep digging deeper
and deeper for myself
losing any signs of life
along the way
something keeps telling me
maybe if I just stretch my hands out
into the sky
something will pull me out
and I'll be okay
but then I look down
and realize that my arms are paralyzed
unable to go the distance
and I'm left in my thoughts wondering
what happens if I can't reach?

"I am like my Dog sometimes. When everything else fails, I just roll over and play dead."
I could make out the figure in the twilight
It’s all your lovely face I see,
Unmistakable
And with the moon rising
I see your smile,
Always infectious
The gentle murmur of waves on the beach
is our love music that beats in unison with our hearts
As I hold you in my arms
And kiss your lips with tenderness
while your soft lips
drip honey to my mouth
Like honey in the rock.
Love is beautiful with nature and nature defines the degree of love to humanity. If nature is void, love is void, too.  We are created to give and receive love in a passionate way to feel the importance of our existence. Love is the essence of existence, both nature and humanity.
