Difficult Ambition

i saw the footprints on the sands of the oasis, and the loamy soils around the rose garden, i also saw prints on the mountains: the strings that aid the climber, i also saw them go the other way around; (evidence of return,decent) but i still look for the prints on the sky around the moon, and so i still stare up,neck bent, cos she turned a million miles a metre in the darkness of the woods,dungeon, hungry heart when she smiled at me. i saw me decend the valleys(i didnt know) went anticlockwise(couldn't imagine) high among the milky she holds my heart. my feet never touched the ground: no job,office,domain. circles:the universe, clock ,and me, impeccable gyration,for the arrow i fired keeps decending,and so she still takes me along(no direction)just the way it was when i first saw her. .
