"My First Epic-uette Poem" #1 The Search They ventured out across the plain In search of something true They followed the sun's changing direction And go nowhere new But when they believed they had Reached their destination They plunged their hands in the dirt And pulled out handfuls of diamonds That gave them some kind of worth #2 Left Behind He was tired and got left behind When he woke up alone Two tears fell from his eyes He didn't cry again after that He just built a ship with trees No one heard from him again Because he went out sailing on the sea #3 Love Your beauty transcends this place And is found far beneath your face Deep in your eyes I follow them to your heart And I rest #4 Desert Island He landed on a desert island And decided to call it home Little did he know He wasn't alone #5 Baby Bird Like a baby bird in my mother's nest I sleep away each and every day #6 They Made A Fatal Error They were arrested for theft And placed in a gated community When they asked what they did wrong They were told they tried to reach infinity But how can that be wrong? They asked We tried to do everything right But right is not always right they were told And besides, you're missing two eyes bright Then they realized their fatal error #7 Butterfly I'm breaking out of my cocoon now My wings are pretty Pink purple blue and green But what am I supposed to do now? #8 Someone Else Here He was more than perceptive And felt the presence of another When he first laid eyes on him His soul let out a shudder This was something new This was something different And he found it on his own He remembered back to those who left him #9 They're Dead They're dead, they're dead But they'll be back again #10 Desert Island 2 I flittered and fluttered around Unsure of where to go I felt a yearning deep inside So I decided to follow my soul To a desert island Where no one else roamed Where I'd live freely In this place I now call home But little did I know I wasn't alone #11 True Love He put his hand to his heart And felt the blood rushing through He cried again, two more tears For he knew he had found something true #12 Follow Me I knew that he was watching Though he knew not that I knew I danced in the sky like a shooting star Contemplating what next I would do I floated to a spot Where I knew he wouldn't be To see if he would follow So we could fall in love completely #13 Love Love Love Love Love He and I met in that place I floated to We drifted off together as new lovers Who really aren't that new My wings began to fade and fall His skin began to melt We were evolving into the same being Creating the thing our hearts always felt My one true love has met me here On this love nest in the sea We're falling into colored lights Constantly revolving around the heart in our dreams
