Watching as the seasons change
Such as acts in plays although
This is not a game but a claim
Not in the name of fame but
More towards what can be gained
When like souls jump from a like
Plane and follow a similar train
Of thought that can sustain
Pains that are more often faces
Between two insane minds that
Crave one another breathing heavy
As cranes that hold up the world
From unbreakable chains of bonds
That may at times leave one crazed.

However, who am I to say, a word?

One word can mean nothing
Yet, quite on the contrary it can
Come to mean each and everything
Even when the word is barely
Known or heard or even dreamed
Up by someone who screams
Of cursed missed opportunities
Or in some cases the hope that
Sunshine and the breath of life brings
To every being along these branches
And among the tallest of trees
That reach towards the heavens
Even without wings while wearing
Rings symbolic of the love between
Individuals living the fantasy in
A true and large reality that moves
In movie screens from scene to scene

However, will teachings be learned?

Children all about yearn for the
Chance to return to separate worlds
Of peaceful turns between friends
That wouldn't leave burns on ends
Of hairs and spur on sins as
Hate revolutionizes and revises
Love while churning the emotions
That lie within our children that learn
The unexpected and expect the
Devilish lies that lie in minds that
Spurn the solid earth as they earn
The opportunity of life in a hearse

However, my body lifts, and my mind drifts...
