When the world is quiet
and the street lights are
gold
there aren't enough words for the
stories I've heard

When the sun is descending
and the lamps flicker
on
there aren't enough minutes to
talk until dawn

When the sky is an ink spot
and the stars are
revealed
there aren't enough words to
explain how
I feel.

Gusts of cool mountain air breathe life in my heart
And I beg for the closeness of the sun, to reach the wide-eyed wonder...
Call me on! *To the heights!
Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassatti always said "Verso L'alto! To the heights!" The soul is always searching for more; It is only until we are with Christ do we find rest. He is the summit!

You dared to bare your soul,
Expecting me to turn tail and run,
To grimace and turn away.
But instead I comforted you.
I assured you, we all have scars,
You have nothing to be ashamed of.
I will stay if you let me,
I'll be your sword,
Your shield,
And maybe...
Your home.
#You

Oh,
but with
the valleys, the
mountains are made
all the more great, all the
more beautiful. Oh, where would we be without our valleys?

When I am with You
there is always  
an element of quiet freedom
that accompanies me

This is the end of your junior year
And in your junior year you met new people
And with those people you shared your time
And from your shared time, you learned of them
And when you learned of them, you opened your heart
And when you opened your heart you started to love them
And when you started to love them, then you became friends.
Friends that you love.
The Love in your heart.
Your heart that has learned.
Learned from shared time.
Shared time with those people.
People you met in your junior year
Of that year this is the end.

This was based off the Oxford Nursery poem "This is the Key to the Kingdom." If you tried, you'd quickly see how fun a challenge it is to mimic the nursery rhyme's poetical structure. :)
