Doubts and uncertainties
dangerously close to dependence
same scene
Aware this time
that I almost closed my eyes again

There is something about a revelation
isn’t there
that brings you to your knees
and then everything that happens after that
is truth revealed

Life isn’t easier
I don’t float like an angel
My strength has been put to its greatest test
and I protect myself
Will trust and knowing betray me again

He the teacher me the student
Why do I always put them there
Like apples and oranges
caught in the balance
Book of knowledge never learned

(sigh) Oh Rubillamn, I think we can all relate to these feelings, dearest friend, then again why substitute apples and oranges when you use pineapples instead, fruit, skin, and nectar, a fine trinity indeed! (smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, He always loves us all, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

It's safer in the long run to keep your eyes open, but it's not always easy, is it?
Hope you have a mellow and happy year m'friend. Kiss that Olympic Mist for me, will ya?

kahil,
  Seems like tests just begin when high school ends!  There were many times in my life that I could identify with this, as others here probably can too.  You're questioning-that's good. Keep the good head on your shoulders.   Nice writing.
