An Abstract Skip I take what I'm handed under any skies overhead But, I tend to fall when I'm beneath it alone I remain in the corner of what complete couldn't finish And, sometimes, without you, emptiness is my new home... I can move to the center of divine when my heart finds you An abstract skip from desertion to fullness in life Against that sky where the shades of evening dance out there My skip into secure can handle the night... The lack of stillness that I need from a days end Finds me in appreciation to my minds ability to capture us And, until peace shakes the hands of sadness inside Any given day at heart's not enough... The rain remains on my skin like the oils of insane It touches me but runs all over for destination to seep And, that one little place that wasn't covered by your arms Absorbs the lifetime waters that somehow finds me... From wearisome to negative that the day's left me with I search for that so obvious and fortunate gift I create from a moment ran dry tears dwelling in eyes With my abstract skip from uncertain to your strength inside... I don't take time wasting when your soul sets that sun If you're in the distance you can bet I will run My abstract skip from unpleasant to the shelter provided Lends me a kinder road when I'm able to find it... Here I stand in my own hearts calling to greed From a skip, to a run is now a leap to believe That when I expect the impossible the miles sing aloud I find reason and the season to stop wearing this ground... Sauni:)The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain. L.S |

I love it when you finally get around here. I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |
