"A Simple Treasure"
5-22-05
I sit here in my steamy bath
And scents intoxicating
Thinking of the past and
How it applies to present
The flickering candle imitating
The ups and downs of love's history
Wanting to hope and dream alike
Yet history's taught a slight paranoia
Curious of the presence of delusions
Is what I read from this authentic
Trying to keep fairness alive with purity
Present is not exactly the past
History repeats itself they say
But maybe all this agony will be rewarded
From a young boy, I day dreamt vividly
Just a simple treasure to hold and cherish
With a soul inside so beautiful none could deny
Yet when presented I feel scared knowing my openness
Why do people seek to hurt us and ruin
Probability with those we've yet to meet
My biggest fear exists as turning the one away
Due to some stupid fear of repeating history
If only I could express without jeopardizing
That I fear you as much as welcome you
The battle that lurks invisibly behind my eyes
I trust your honesty but admit that experiences
Can change what a person said they would never do
Lift me up high
Prove me wrong inside
Teach me something new
Lead me from my paranoia
Lift me up high
Prove to me love still exists
Teach me your validity
Lead me into your universe
Lead me through the galaxies
Touch my brittle heart, caress
Everything you say you like in me
Please ease this feeling inside of me
