Description Sometimes
I feel like all I do is chase dreams
And things I'll never get to grasp

Lead me into the unknown
With a smile on my face
Carefree
Unafraid of the possibilities

Hold me up as I work to build
Strength and muscle
Someone my size rarely possesses
Keep me from falling back
As I work on my aim

Help me open my eyes
To the world around me
Smiling still
Because you're with me

Battle with me
Just a little while
But remember not against
"An army of one" yet a team

Dream with me
Not have those scared flashes of the past
So unchangeable
Even when we're certain there's more we could have done
To make it all different

Butterfly effects

Change the past to effect the present
If it was all different so would you and I
You certainly wouldn't be mine

I go through life
Chasing unobtainable dreams sometimes
Wishing on the stars at night
Envisioning it all by candle light

Do you write with me
Your dreams and things?
Or is it all simple creativity?

Perhaps just my young nievity

Can I swim
Deep within your eyes?
Bluer than Caribbean seas
Peaced yet battling

Do you believe in life after death?
A continuation of a soul to remain with it's perfect match?

I think you're my match
My equivalent in so many different ways
Everything has changed since I met you
Since we made some decisions to leave us where we currently stand

I'm afraid, baby
Of failing you
Of messing it all up somehow
Or yet again
Maybe it's all just in my head

Bring me some comfort
In these long days before I leave
Then while I'm away
I won't break from my memories
Atrocities

Antics of youth
Regrets
With my forgetfulness

Look at me
A rambling mess of disconnections

I love how you make me laugh, baby
Even when it'd be inappropriate for anyone else
I never feel embarrassed like that with you

Free
Free with small birds hatched in spring
Learning to spread those wings
And make their own little nests and things

Take me away
Brilliantly
On the firery wings of a pheonix
To burn peacefully and joyously
And melt away the chains that bind us
To unwanted things

Rise again with me
From those ashes of the past
Change it all again
For just a few
Leave it all behind
And we'll be shadows of what was me and you...

You said: i dont expect you to have all the answers and if someone takes words of wisdom as so then they are silly

I love the story of when Socrates walked through Rome searching for one who was wiser than he... Socrates questioned all the great leaders and noblemen but never found one wiser than himself - for he realized and accepted his own fallibility and ignorance thus he knew he hadn’t all the answers.

The above is what I try to live by and when I give advice on DA or anywhere in life or even if I am giving the advice to myself I realize that I can't have all the answers.

There is no relevance here I just love telling the story

Ah. To dream the impossible dream - I love Man of La Mancha I relate well with you on this subject. Although the piece isn't flawless and perhaps needs work it has a lot of potential and does effectively release its potent thoughts on its reader. Tengo mucho gusto!

Progressing and revising your work is good as long as you don't forget what it was, who you were and where you came from.

Thus you don't know where you're going if you don't know where you came from besides how do you know when you've got there?

What I mean by not perfect is that sometimes there was just too much being said when less would have been better. I am one that likes to talk - I find that I am more effective when I say less while saying more. I only recently discovered this - thus passing the torch to you... don't burn yourself

Words of wisdom take them for what you will - remember I don't have all the answers I only suggest what works for me.

hahahaha wisdom is brought through experiance my friend...i'll never forget who i was or where i came from...the world has its reminders

and you're right, you can never find a destination if you never had a starting point

i know, i can be rather long winded...though, i seem to just always have soo much banging around in my head, and each writing i do is more of a short story when i reread them...

hahaha i have tough skin, i don't always burn too easily

"eye', expected to have all the answers" as Otep would say...i dont expect you to have all the answers and if someone takes words of wisdom as so then they are silly
