I long for the gentle soft white snow
But not the winter and it's blistering blow
I long for Midas' precious touch of gold
Alas never again a loved one could I hold

I long for the love of a woman so dear
But dread my awkwardness and fear
I long for fame beyond what man has seen
Is it worth paparazzi coveting my dream

Mankind longs for all manner of things
But never the consequences it brings
Still in understanding I regrettably know
I will always long for snow
This one is a bit old yet still very relevant to me
Orange orb softly stave ~
Thy kiss upon the open sea
Nor melt behind horizon free,
Or nimbly flee, from sight
Not ere shedding citrus light
To skim across glassy wave ~
Hover there, but yet a spell
And in this frame pray thee dwell.
To look upon thy calming grace,
Thy soft glow upon weary face.
Under the vaulted sky
The grass below, my soul, and I
For no one knows the inner workings there
My heart exposed, laid bare
How oft they mock and stare
Yet know not what they see
For only I truly understand what is me
And the painted vail beyond my gaze
The sun set high in morning blaze
Soak my soul with warming rays
Humbled now and always
A frustrated mind
What webs we weave
These thoughts that grind
And neurons deceive

A simulation of lies
This life we live
Seldom a prize
To receive or give

These layers of uncertainty
Beholden to the mind's eye
Self made complexity
We are born and then we die
Come into the light
Forget your plight
Forget the spite
It's time to unite
Join the fight

Liberty never dies
No more demise
No more surprise
No more lies
Just compromise

Equal in His sight
Even despite
The blackest of night
That evil alt right
Come into the light
