From The Inside Looking Out By: Noah Eaton 1/12/01 Within the solemn heart of a mirror within a mirror that I see in my soul Shines this paradigm of time, swimming through my bloodstream An essence of the love I feel, the morning dew of serenity I breathe Corkscrew thoughts tunnel through the webs of my mind, hollering the untold To love Thee, and for the eyes to see Eternal love of life and the meaning of being To praise the eyes of faith and sanctity And let the light emblaze your eyes, let love set you free And still we rise From the inside looking out Upon the esplanades of the dreams that we have been offered We hold this seed, wistfully eager to see these dreams blossom and bud Unfold your palms and plant this seed, in the sanctuary of your flesh and blood Now this hearts garden needs tending, if you want to seek promises’ flower By-and-by, time etches into my hand, the wrinkles memories woven tight Massages me with sensuous lotion, my mind and soul mollifies Time and love, completing your heart with a blithe weavers hitch A new full life is born, ridding of all illusion of a granted wish And still we love From the inside looking out And still we explore From the inside looking around Through dreamtimes eyes, you only go so far A recalcitrant tear is shed, unctuous watery eyes of myopia we wear, searching afar In states like this, somehow we are all the same, from the inside looking out But we all walk on to seek the gold, escaping the quicksand of doubt Hence we stand, approaching our shadows on eternity’s crossroads Making ourselves the people that we want to be Channeling the canals of lust, marching through the fog of pain and up the escarpments to our dreams Under the enlightening gun of faith, onward to love and rapture we go And still we feel From the inside looking out And still we live To the outside looking in, and back again |

What a wonderful way to look at life and love! This tells me that you not only see life, but you 'observe' it with your heart, not just your eyes!! Great write!!  Write on! -<--<--{(@ |
