Each and every wilted leaf, delivers me a wilted emotion. As your flower fades my strength dwindles. I need you as much as you need me. Starting as a seed, you became the beauty in my life. You've been there through thick and thin. Most of all, you were the listener to my words; the ear to my mouth; the silent wisdom and answers to my cry's. You've carried me through the hardest of times, smiling up at me with so much joy and glee. Now you weep and droop hiding from the light. Please look up at me and remember how far we've come. I will smile at you as you did for me.
I was young and full of innocence. The world seemed perfect, a playground at my fingertips. Magic was real and fairytales came true. I didn't have to worry about how I feel or how to cure the blues. With that view of the world I felt limitless. I became older and age stole my innocence.
As we lay here
So far away
Life's mirror
Reflecting our days
Memories like gold
Forever treasured
Until I'm old
Nothing measures
All these ideas which I conceive I predetermined meditatively creating reason to believe all is everything in this reality and all is so beautifully wound and bound all around leaving love to be the only thing found and it trails and prevails leaving no option to fail but rise above into a perfect fit glove called life.
The graceful improvisation
Moves through your body
As your feet rhythmically glide
My eyes stuck fixation
Embody emotion inside
Artistic beauty
With effortless elegance
Reveals truly
This sorceress's extravagance  
Illuminating passion
With every twist in time
Balanced fashion
Which resists the paradigm
Expressive energy
Fluidly maintained in the trance
Creating synergy
Entrained into your dance
How do I prevail through these unexpected circumstances

Looking for shortcuts through drugs and quick romances

But I can't deal that way

Nobody can heal that way

So why does it seem so right when I feel that way
I sit back and contemplate
This reality that I live in
Trying to imagine
Some other dimension
Where I'd make
A different decision
Than the ones
On the daily
Which I'm permitting
I question this world
In every sense
Trying to make sense
Why everybody
Gives me their two cents
And I sense
That it might be a sense
Of power that they feel
So how do I feel
Like everybody else
Because this feeling inside
Never fails

— The End —
