Fragile are our lives like a feather falling in turbulent winds
A hope we think there is from the dark passions calling deep within
Sharing our souls with others is a desperate play,
taking our hearts in hand holding it up to see what the world might say.

Like a wild flower growing in the green field,
we set out sights upon the hot winds knowing our fates are sealed.
Wouldn’t take much to do ourselves in,
a backward glance, a forward chance, a gentle stroke of the pen.

Echoing memories of my pen strokes brushing across my heart,
chambering memories that bounce within looking for passages to part.
Frantic is the emotion that pushes us on,
looking for the chambered memories that have gone wrong.

Soulless is the reflection within our eyes,
they search there own resurrection and hold us in despise,
Our souls travel where they can not go, where shadows play
they can look..... but dare not stay.
Joel.

To sum this all up it’s easy to say,
we win... we loose,   it matters not..... it’s the play.

No, sometimes seeing someone glancing at his watch, you know....but in reading these words, time stopped for a good reason...and they were so beautiful
