Abating Blue(5/6/03)

Darkness decends
yet light filters through
I see the flecks in the air
and try to capture with hands
wanting to become light, abating blue

Lessons are learned
with each shouted word
every bruise
True colors of others
rear their ugliness
and show me with eyes blurred

Nothing seems to come easy
the battle apparent
freedom from one
leads to fight with another
like a moth to a flame
It's just inherent

Darkness decends
yet light filters through
I see the flecks in the air
and try to capture with my hands
wanting to become light, abating blue
