The Road Never EndsLove
the way I knew it
was childlike, pure and crystalline.
It was tear-apart lust, down to the ground
and take what you need and give back too.

Passages of TimeYou are my mother,
and I love you so.
It was so very hard,
to let you go.
Through the years,
you've yelled at me,

Within my heart there to abide.
