"ephemera" - 4/14/2007
to see so much beauty
through your eyes
something I never expected tonight
sorry with all of my heart
freedom's observance
prevented me from
following you
to where I
have never been
I don't know
what it is
I can't put my
finger on it
I try to be angry
at circumstance
and then you send
me these photos of your
self
(your true self, how you see things)
one thing I have learned
from years of making the same
wish every birthday
is that life doesn't wait
and blossoms don't bloom endlessly
so whatever you feel
know that I am possessed
by a light you might not see
touching you (no less)
