Wise men say

From the mouth of the Wise to the ears of the fool,
From the ends of the mind and the depths of it too.
From the sight of my eyes from the old and the new,
From the face of the kind, from others and you

With the beat of my heart, comes these thoughts of mine
At the sounding of words, that echoed in time
That whenever I start, with the beginning behind
That's when thought's herds, stomp and trample the line. 

And I think of the message simple and true,
The wise's words of patience, wrote for the fool,
Avoid haste through the passage, you must not pursue,
But I can't help but whence, falling in love with you. 

As many things in nature, it is my nature to
Be drawn naturally, in a way near to you
As a river brings life to all it runs through
My heart seems to swell when I come near you

As I run down the mountain, from its peaks to the shores
I run as one runs to what he adores
Like a river that is endless and flows evermore
A love unbound, like ones written of in lore

Like a river so powerful, one's love must be 
And me planted in it, as strong as a tree
Like this river that flows, darling, down to the sea
Somethings like this, are just meant to be

We'll go this together, with your hand in mine
As the river subsides, and rises in time
And a gentle breeze runs quickly to soothe your mind
And assure you that in your future all will be fine

So I give you my hand and my whole life too
And I promise you this, and my word is true
Despite words of patience, wrote for the fool,
I can't help but whence, falling in love with you.

A rationed mind

A rationed mind
Divided by fear
Of what is distant
Based on what's near

A refracted view
Seen through the pane
That we all look through
But see not the same

A future that's true
But based on past lies
That we all fought for
With loss now realized

I search for my brother
Whose name is unknown
And stand by his mother
Whose grief is yet shown

How can you stand there
And not see what's true
Despite victory won
That I have lost you

We still hope for the day
When Love will prevail
But each day we fight
Is another we fail

Please come to the table
And join us in Love
This Love we both fought for
And prayed was enough

But a love can't sustain us
If its bound in by war
And carries our loathing
Towards those we'd adore

We are all in His image
In spite of our eyes' sight
As such we should Love all
As this only is right

I pray that you join me
And join me in prayer
And that our praying together
May not be so rare

So please stand by me
I ask my dear brother
For when we stand together
We'll be joined by Another

We imagined a world
Where nothing divided us
But ignored the One
That joins all inside us

So I stand by my brothers
And their right to be free
Not just in this world
But in Eternity
