undiluted and unpolluted
and glowing in the night!
I once was lost, caught
in my own web of loss,
afraid to face the day
for fear of breaking away.
No boundaries exist, I am free
I morph in and out of
the things and people I see...
I wrap my shadow around their
thoughts, I urge them on to dream,
they feel my prescence there
but their eyes have yet to see...
In essence I am you,
in essence I am truth,
my face is full of laughter
and my heart is full of youth,
you forget that you know me,
you have wandered off your path
and in bitterness you hide
from the ghost of your wrath...
but I am not to fear,
only fear can maim,
and you are really no different
than I, in essence we're the same.
I am a shiver down your spine,
the shudder that knows...
and your skepticism is following
the darkness where it goes.
And I try to hold my tongue
for fear of letting go
of the truth that I posess
...in time you shall know.
I am pure, wrapped in light
invisibly I protect you,
ambiguous in the night...
a shapeshifter, a dream
a feeling of love
in this ever-flowing stream...
where only the brightest
will see the golden mean
and anticipate the day
when the darkness fades away
and your eyes, newly formed,
will open to the haze,
and born of love and wisdom
your heart will raise its beat
and the tempo of existence
will bring us to our feet.
