You're in the Front Row

by Danielle   Aug 4, 2004


Vast oceans crash in your eyes
Am I dreaming again this time?
The wind carries your essence
As paper airplanes learn to fly.

Constant visions hidden within us
Are hung on walls much like trust
They come on occasion to deliver
Always there, lit with lust

Friendship and love, then a pause
They cherish what everyone does
Open wonder is better that closed belief
And not everything has a cause

Iridescent clouds blow over
Somewhat like those that have anger
Hold back and do not love
Unveils life's true danger

Lions tame their own paths
No one follows steps taken last
Keep to your ties of lace
Because you can't redesign the past

So live life with meanings upside-down
Don't linger around until it unfolds
You're in the front row, the pressures on
But a question still remains:
Will you make it on your own?

    Startling, much as the rest. Your experience to weave an emotion, a tale, and or an idea radiates here.
    I can choose a favorite, but then as well make my one-by-one to praise you. (5)
