Ellipse

Ellipse 7/11/2014

Swift and silent

Ships move in space

Slicing through the black

Straight in

And straight out. 

My mind travels at night

But comes home

In the morning

Sending and receiving

Mysteries in my head. 

Deceit is thick

Like a hot summer evening

Covering our eyes

Like a thick black blanket. 

Because there is always more hidden

Than what we can see

And what we believe

Is much more

Than what we know. 

The hours tick by

Painfully slow

But ravages everything

Before we can see.    

The enemy is a friend

And all our friends are enemies

As we surround ourselves

With the stunted

And emotionally disturbed. 

But even in disappointment

Life is beautiful

And love is sweet

So we might as well enjoy

All that is left. 

Danger is always there

And death always waits

But even they shall pass

Frustrated and dead. 

If I could
I would go backwards

And relive it all again

Wasting less time

And not missing a thing. 

But that is a Privilege

We have yet to explore

As we are trapped in a bubble

Both transparent

And opaque. 

God looks down

And pokes his finger at me

Just to wake me up

And keep me going. 

I am loved

Even though I suffer

And I am blessed

Even if I am hidden.

There is always promise

And there is always a chance

So let us embrace what we have

And know

There is soo much more.
