The Areas of Blind

I chase the shadows of my mind
And do not know what I will find
Perhaps I’ll find a firefly
To light the dark within my sigh

It is the moment I would know
The turn of green that says to go
I feel so tired of the red
Of living life and being dead

I can’t dismiss the real of hurt
The struggle over common dirt
The apathy that moves with time
I find no sight beyond the grime

The world I see is fantasy
My dream of Eve and ecstasy
My egos change of what is real
Into my fantasies appeal

But this I cannot share with you
For each one has their private view

Keep repeating the first stanza.

Even though the rest is dark, have faith, the firefly exists...

I've had a very bad case of this, so...a little moth told me, and she is very wise, that the only way to fill a hole, was to dig one.

My garden is going to be beautiful this year.



grin...you should listen to her yanno.



I love you seymour.
