sketching a labyrinth to the soul of understanding
peer into me sweet unbearable darkness
one pivotal imperfection laid so achingly bare
discontent hordes the gasps in the fiber of even our worst hate
meant to be cleansed in the waters of restless reason once but no longer
Ah, if love could only see life's smallest smile
nothing then would her true spirit not dare
ransom
a sweet jeopardy
blows kisses to foul lips that speak words far too sweet to be passing such careless threshold
ridiculous is such a tree turning on the sky
mother to its beautiful branches
father to its glorious growth
baby sitter for the breeze that beckons the lonesome wind to come and play
all participate in a game that cannot be lost for true selves are found just here upon such plain
and man is the sole investigator of his own purpose and path
walking away from all so we can better find the GOD our souls needed in that moment to leave behind
why even chaos can create sense in the minds of those who cannot otherwise think clearly
so Imagine the path that the truly self aware must take
these same rocks become boulders and are bound to hurt the feet but the soul in such quest builds invaluable foundations that one's humanity cannot minutely imagine
so for some
one can almost understand
why the ignorance is sometimes the more welcome
of the two...........
