Taut and severed Attacked with surprise Like a mad lover Clearly influences stages of life Controlled second choice Design or Chance...what purpose Blushing bruises Eyes faint with retire I was the second or option Hearing sounds of his preference As the onlooker...motionless and still What had elevated the strain? Of this love, what was the purpose? Within this heart, why'd he return? The passer-by transcended bearing My hearts music...spring or summer All those years....now has no place here Scant scraps numb, dying consumption Divided experience, rejected from the beginning Standing back alone, in the heart attack of finish What Nightingale of songs imagined By the great light of the moon A bird's-eye perspective of a waking dream Sense of experience of a vivid illusion Now to be as silent as you I've read your face, seen your desires Was I looking at a lover? Who has disappeared behind a character? Was I one of his soldiers, competing for a prize? Now who is the prize? By anything short of death Having a much more ominous sound Closing my mind to illusion's play His play........ I need to control my eyes, listening to height Wherein everywhere there is life Philosophy will enlighten humanity Hopes for the future and spirit of words Like an inconsistent wind, conscious portions Develop transitory brightness....this power arises From within....tumultuous might's harmonies A flower has faded, but the wind of the mind Will proportion the sound of the spirit and heart Falling leaves will garnish a cloud...interwoven Driving forces becomes tangible sounds The height of noble men, is not accomplish by flight |

A flower has faded, but the wind of the mind Will proportion the sound of the spirit and heart Falling leaves will garnish a cloud...interwoven Driving forces becomes tangible sounds The height of noble men, is not accomplish by flight The last line..the last line it echos in my mind. Stunning, Lee, just stunning. |
