I glanced in the mirror
Saw your eyes
Within the reflection of mine
It may not always be what it seems
But what is seems is suddenly changing the way to follow your dreams
Inevitably floating down stream
Setting sail for a new journey to believe…
I sugar coated the abuse
Now everything tastes sweet.
He was easy as a breeze on the outside
He had a raging storm inside
Busy searching for the stop signs
And the turns kept passing him by
Even the most colorless of roses, still have life and purpose…
It takes the right person to bring the color back to life and bloom to its highest expectations...

a leaf falls onto the bench,
completely mute. you pick
it up, begging it to make a sound.
i wonder why, it won't work wonders;
i wonder why, has it fallen down,
i wonder why, are we all
just leaves, now
on the ground?
The words that you read
Eyes that see, have the power to receive
The mind conceives, as it wants to believe
