Ever...

Quietly seeping

my insides leak out.

Sadness has become my demeanor.

Joy is tainted by sorrow,

bittersweet kisses.

My journey is changing course,

scarred by pain and emotion.

I look at where I've been...

how did I make it through?

Always searching for the chosen road,

sometimes losing sight.

I wander off into the thick woods

distracted by fairy twinkles.

Only then do I realize,

as I've played in their streams...

I've lost my way.

So I choose another avenue to bring me back to You.

Ever my longing.

Ever my purpose.

Hold on to me and don't let go.

Don't let me lose my way.

I tend to daydream in the clouds

twittering with the bluebirds.

Floating and drifting,

sometimes marching to a different tune.

But always You.

Ever my purpose.

Ever my sweet desire.
