The moment when you think about
The way it must begin or end
To rhyme or flow
It’s there that you’ve lost the original thought again
For the sake of format
For the sake of style
For the sake of trying to relearn what which you already know
Because the original thought is something to be cherished.
The oaks locale was flawless , a songster mockingbird
was in perfect pitch , her marshland retained -
waters to exacting standards , her nutrient rich feeder streams quietly meandered
The land drew me in with perfumed 'piedmont wind'
Gods blue eyes watched over me from on high ,
faces appeared in marshmallow sky
Water lashed the banks
Pine trees reflected skyward in perfect rank
Wild azalea , honeysuckle , cottonwood and river birch
guardians stood beside me
Tall brown grass danced , directing my homeward journey

stare at a blank white wall for hours
let it's emptiness consume you
then you'll understand
what it really means to feel blue
The more I watch the world
The more I see
(The more I see)
The more I watch the way you move
Got me so untangled
(So untangled)
The way you move
The way you speak
The way you show your love
The way you look at me
I feel so loved
(So loved, so loved)
Hush darling
Everything is alright
Hush darling
(Hush, hush)
Hush my darling
The sky bends just the right way
(the right way)
And I see you tonight.
This night
Seems so perfect.
Just you,
And me
On this enchanted evening.
On this night we both see
What’s in you and me?
I feel so deeply,
So strongly
So meaningfully
Of you
(Of you, baby)
I need
This moment
Just one touch
(Just one touch)
One way to see
That you really love me
The stars gaze at us tonight.
In your eyes, the light
Makes it okay tonight.
I can see
So beautifully
Perfection in all that I see

In…
You
(So baby the only thing I can say tonight
I love you,
I love you)
Hold your eyes
In the gaze of mine
Feel what we have together
Breathe life into me.
Love me
(As I love you)
Hold me
(As I hold you)
Kiss me
(As I kiss you)
On this enchanted evening.
more of a song
In this shaken, twisted world, I gradually become transparent.
Please don't bother looking for me; do not stare.
I unlike you dont belong in this world
A world of kid's imagination.
So please remember me; as vivid as I was.

Tell me, please tell me.. Exactly, who resides within me?
Bottled up in the brown liquid
Is the life dreamed but never led
Drenched in the sweat of fitful nightmares
Opposing forces converging to play musical chairs
Fighting over the last seat on the crowded bus
Inside a  mind where I find I ride with no idea where it's taking us
twisting fish
now they turn and do it again in a space
of six or seven inches
seeing the effect
in the place of adonis now
is a sapling

or

seeing the effect
now in the place of adonis
there is a sapling
