our love is a stream of conscienceness kept
that is reserved for yet another day
each evening
the music that we hear
is not just musical marks of time
but the fabric we seek
to weave our memories around
and bond us to those who have yet
to even start their own dancing
we are but butterflies
free in an unseeable net
we fly blind in these cages
with no walls
and converse with shadows
layered beneath
blankets so deaf
our lives are all our own
or so we think
until the moment they are taken
or altered greatly
then we realize they never really
were
not really
all along they belonged
to God
we are but the borrowers
of these miraculous vehicles
called human flesh
it is only our spirit selves
that we get to keep forever
ah but how so very lovely that idea
of keeping the rose bud
while tossing the thorny stem
ingenius really
once you really think about it............
