I see you
So clearly
As if peering through
Alice's looking glass
Though you try to hide
Keep all your feelings
Bottled up inside
Without healing
Your inner voice
Antaganizing
Keeps you at bay
So very far away
Finally seems
You're on the outside
Looking in
No longer wanting to hide
So come with me
Step outside
See how beautiful it can be
This life, this ride
Only lasts for so long
Not to be wasted
Take chances
Taste it
Believe
In what you are
Capeable of anything
Take it as far
As your dreams take you
When you're sleeping
Without conscience
Of the reality your keeping
Grasp it
Hold it
Never let go
Own up to it
It's yours
For the taking
No time
To be wasting
We all make our own
Bed of roses to sleep in
Be sure to remove the thorns
Otherwise it's called cheating
Pick the most beautiful
Vibrant colors of petals
Place each one oh so delicately
Never let go
Of the colors
As they fade away
Tend to them
And they will always remain
As you first pictured them
In your mind
Forever
They're just too hard to find
When you look for them
A second time
I tried to call you at work, but was unable to get through, so I came here to spend time with you... Even when your voice can't be heard your writing speaks voulmes.. Thank you for being here...
Love,
John
Interesting monologue, Jen... i can almost picture this girl looking down, peering at this glass...where a fogged picture of her man is seen within it... quite a whimsical sense here...Smilesz. And as always, your free verses have this distinct development in them.... thoroughly enjoyable. thanxs for informing me~! take care.
