See

If today was yesterday
It would all become so clear
The laughter, the sadness, the jadedness my dear

To see yourself again
As a cheery and happy child
Would allow you to gaze beyond a simple reflection
To relinquish all the ild

I can not make you see
What you truly mean to me
And so I quietly sit beside
In your aura I simply reside

Your not the child that you once were
You are beyond definition
Beyond the simplicity of her

If she could look across the distance
She would envy your persistence
Your influence over me
But even more so
I believe she would be furious
At the person you desperately can not see

Luckily today is not tomorrow
So please forgo this foolish sorrow
Pull back the raven locks from your glowing face
And leave nothing of this nonsense
Not even a single trace

The present would be Times gift to me
When you render your tenderness so givingly
And I can aspire to someone I want to be

I see this piece as a time machine of the inner soul and it's outward reflections. We often spend many moments looking to the past, hoping for the future and musing upon the now. During these times we bring to our thoughts, "What if", "Perhaps" and "Maybe not." These concepts bring with them an insight, but it is not without a price. That price is often view of our own path that might be seen in an amusement park mirror. Only when we flow in the current day or idea, with our convictions and will power aligned to our dreams and aspirations do we see the power that we ourselves can wield.

A fantastic piece that sparks the mind to think.

Wow, this is an amazing poem. The flow is so light (at least that's how I read it) yet the feelings it portrays is something so different. What a great and original write!
