Black and White

My life spins in tune with yours twirling and dancing through open doors to think you almost slipped away missing the mark in the usual way In life we love one in the same our minds are cloned like the visions we claim Of karma past now finally atoned The most perfect fit we've ever known how tragic our love I ever postponed when confusion was setting my tone The missing piece in a puzzled life this fit won't falter for the rest of our lives All of my life I have been waiting for all that you give to me... I've dreamed of this a thousand times before even in my dreams I couldn't love you more If there were no words to speak my heart would hear you still If your eyes had no sight to seek still sweetly would your hunger be filled Easy is the road wide is the gate the key for every passage once closed in time when there is no time to waste Words and rhyme have ebbed their power to convey such deep emotion as a glacier over the sea will tower it's fire breathes passion through the frozen Such my feeble impartation to sketch in black and white the vividness and coloration the hues of joy unseen by the eyes Yet try I will although decrepit to give tongue to all I feel in voice of art defined poetic when happy so true is surreal Oh God, my God... what did I do to turn my sorrow into dreams come true?

This is an excellent write, Sarai! After a negative past it is great to look forward with joy and hope. That is what dreams are for; they are like giant waves...either you drown under them or else you ride them to shore. // paul
