Have you walked where you've never been and it felt more then just familiar...

  

I've walked this way on hallowed ground
In riches and rags I've been around
As male and female I've played the part
I've won the dance and lost the heart
I've looked in to the eyes of love,
As I've watched the roses wither

With chill of spin I know not how
The one true rose will bloom
As it has before this time,
In a crescent harvest moon
Each time, loving more and more
As I am as infinity,  love never ends,
over and over it begins

My last life lost in battles defeat
It brought me back in wounded pleat
I ware the scares of  gallant pride
On  victorious dreams I ride

In this life I know  that I shall heal
To rejoin the world as it is sealed
Am I a worrier?  No say not
I fought for riches I never got

'Tis  peace in heart, I've not found
In hollowed hills, on battle grounds
Many souls have passed my way
And onto the heavens, where they shall stay
As I only dream of such a day

As I turn each corner, I know I've been
And ten thousand more, that I shall spend
I'll see the eyes again and again
As I watch the roses wither

For  eyes that close are not far gone
they are not at rest,
they have just moved on
To a place like here,
with just new names
faces and places are all the same

Though some don't know just where or when
If they have seen,  and are back again
Inside of them they know not
Splendor of sorrow is what they got

They are the players in the poets verse
They too, bare the weight of this curse
Their eye's  have seen an unending past
From heart to tounge their tales are cast
Time will pass as peace they seek
As again in life they meet

Tori, I don't know what's been inspiring you lately, but whatever it is, I hope it hangs around! You've made me laugh, cry, and just well brought out emotions. BRAVO lady!

 <*\\\><

When you can't make up your mind
Which way is right for you,
Stop and softly ask yourself,
What Would Jesus Do?
