Just how much
Is too much
When our wants
Turn into needs
The very fabric
Of civilized humanity
Is ripped apart
I for one
Only ever want
What I need
The rest I
Leave for others
To fight for
Just how much
Is too much
When our wants
Turn into needs
The very fabric
Of civilized humanity
Is ripped apart
I for one
Only ever want
What I need
The rest I
Leave for others
To fight for
Love always finds
The heart to
Which it belongs
Be patient heart
Why do I keep
Looking for that which
I will never find
Not that it’s lost
It’s just never been
By virtue of that
Is it a dream
Or is it creation
For everything that is
Was once was not
And then suddenly was
So perhaps even maybe
I will find that
What is in here
Some where out there
Wouldn’t that be marvelous
The closer I get
The less I worry
Like driving in mountains
Serpentine roads that cut
Through towering rock my
Dreams of what’s coming
Just around the bend
Sights I may see
Laughter I might have
Friends I will make
Makes this winding drive
This up over around
It’s very own destination
So so I go
I hear the rain
Wishing it were snow
Rain sounds like heartbeats
Reminding me I’m forgotten
Snow sounds like singing
Reminding me I’m alive
Turning one into another
And always back again
