I'm not what I want
...What I'm doing
...Where I've been
I'm not a metaphor or dream
I'm not a wish or sudden whim
I am in passing and in kind
I am a thought perceived
A wish perhaps
But most of all I'm you becoming
For having since gone and read me in mind

(exist anew)

Somedays I'm the orphan
And others
I'm the imperfect avatar of the world in shining
All of its smiling glory

You don't have to love
Lose your steadfastness
Or even change the un
Be true and moral, grace
Tolerate, don't cheat or hate

Sorry about the way I fall      
  how mortality fades me    
through and with.          
Inevitably it's this      
And this is this.      
In you and calling
Me out so much
Not seeing is.
To me        
a true      
being.  
(you)

Revelations isn't tomorrow
I know because in knowing means, I don't
Don't tell me I don't care for today
Or know what it means, when in reason won't
Fast held in gossip, I'm telling you this
In the nothingness found only free
Don't sacrifice freedom of mind to less
And lesser things from revelatory such
Wants of being in the know you think
I know this so, in this so so world we do change but don't ever grow
No One Knows the Day or Hour
36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of [a]heaven, but My Father only."

The world is the world, this story is round, stop trying to convince me that we've changed so much.

Better is sometimes
s u b j e c t i v e (and)
borderline based on what has been or
has not been or
will not be or
wasn't ever meant

to
be
Desire this, desire that, or don't. Sometimes your perspective is just that and no more.

I've since discovered — that the hardest part of seeing (with such unique perspective) is to see — what the person or pleasure actually is, and not what you think it is, was, meant, or could quite possibly be.
