A Day Flower

A day flower
You were just a day flower how beautiful you were when I set my eyes upon you,
It was morning me at my balcony when you look glittering with the morning dew,
You were such a beauty that can be seen by many and ignored by few,
On earth such a flower I have never seen,
With a beauty that has never been,
Never had I a behavior to care for a garden but for this flower I did.
Hope it gave me as the sun rose up high,
The brighter you got the beauty you kept getting,
But there was one thing in this earth I never knew.
I did draw a painting of you that I ought to call it a master piece,
I drew it with all the love and each stage with a kiss,
But this is what I didn’t know of you,
You just a flower that will last for a day,
Then shrink the next day,
If only I could be a gardener then I would have known of the flower,
That got beautiful form hour to hour,
So stunning in the morning,
Can’t talk of its beauty at noon,
But such a tragic at the evening,
Leaving my garden with just its stalk.
It was such a beautiful day flower.

Rising

I have been down to the lowest level, 
Where I stood face to face with the devil.
 But I had to raise myself up higher, 
And was able to get up out of the fire.
 I had dug myself into a deep dark hole, 
Where the emptiness would filled my soul. 
I had found a way to raise my spirit, 
To be able to get up out of that pit. 
I had been to the bottom of the abyss, 
Where I found that the world was amiss. 
I had to climb up toward the light, 
And I was able to escape that with a fight. 
I've stood at the base of the mountain, 
Where I knew I'd have to climb again. 
And I will never be able to stop, 
If I ever wanted to reach the top.
 I have now reached the highest point, 
Having fun with the finest joint. 
There's only one place left for me to go, 
As I can see the stars beginning to show
The sky is clearing up for me
The future is just that clear for me to see.
