Self Rising Like the wind you came seeking, blowing life in to the earths cracks finding the dust that was my life, breathing air in to every grain You are my breath of life Like the Morning due, you came and drenched my dust with your juices giving dimension back to me again And like the truncal rain, you poured down on me when my soul was dehydrated and withered lifeless and still You are my nourishment Like the Thunders bolts of lightening that dances in the dark sky's above where there was just a cloud, you sought out and found the sprite, electrifying me with your powerful will to live You are my energy Where darkness lay beneath the rock, that was my home no light was ever there till you turned the rock over and beamed in the ray's of your gallant glow giving warmth where only coldness was before You are the light of my life My eyes still blinded from the darkness, had no life or memory of life but you shined so bright till they hurt, closing them tightly brought droplets of tears washing away the dust from them, and I witness your glow, as I basked in the beauty of your charity The colors of your eyes brown and amber gold and green gleamed through me Something I'd not felt for so long began to pump inside me again, I felt the warmth of your giving You are the blood of my being I know now that no matter where it is I seek the truth it comes from you and only you I know now that the truth was there when I let myself wither loosing all that was once important to me I know now that it is only you I can count on in times of trouble and to share my gladness I know now that it is you and only you that loves me for who I am and who I may be come I know now that I am you, and you me.. And I know now, I love us © tori 1999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If with pen in hand I've made you think I've not wasted one drop of ink vlh. |

What a wonderful way to look at love ------------------ It is better to be silent and be considered a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. |
