Poem

This poem is dedicated to a special far away friend - Brandden Blackwell.  We became so close before we actually met.  So close, yet so far away - never around, yet always there - It's kind of like describing a metaphoric friend. Thanks, Brandden for inspiring the artistic flair we will forever share.

Metaphorically Speaking

Metaphorically speaking
We find life is just as such
Not giving facts precisely
And meaning not as much

Speaking in forms of reference
Searching to define what is heard
It suggestively leads us to believe
It was really meant in other words

For the analogy of something other
A figure of speech is produced for it
It is given with just so many words
Even beating around the bush a bit

There is such a variety of life about
May be why facts aren’t given to all
As some may take it the wrong way
To certainly cause their downfall

Every insinuation or symbolization
 You will find several points of view
Where there are just so many others
To view way differently than you

So we must be careful to others
Of what we say or rather imply
We will be judged for our words
On judgment day when we die

Many times in the matter of love
It is not always honestly expressed
How someone’s heart really feels
Then the joy is lost and depressed

As we verify and clarify in life
Searching to find what is true
There is nothing as it really seems
The bible is full of metaphors too

God says we are to test all things
Then to hold fast to what is good 
As written in 1 Thessalonians 5:21
We will then find what we should

A metaphorically speaking life
Must be truly meant to be
For when the truth is found
You will surely be set free
