Thoughts…..

I thought today, perhaps a little too much

About us, life, love, destiny, and such.

My heart thirsts like a sun-baked flower,

Waiting for a soft summer shower.

Its hidden glory waits limply for the rain,

Believing that it might bloom again.

To be denied this life-giving substance,

Threatens my very existence.

My soul is restless; I think I know why, 

Like a captive bird, it yearns to fly.

If somehow I could open this prison door,

I soon would learn how to soar.

And, after crossing my own storm-tossed-sea,

I’d come back, to take you soaring with me.

Yes, I thought today, perhaps a little too much.

About us, life, love, destiny, and such.
