A Poem by Glee

A dialog turned song poem. Go ahead, sing it like a song.

Hallo dear
I see you, but I want to be with you
I know you, but how can I meet you

Hallo dear
I see you, but I also appreciate you
I hear you, but I'd like to know more about you


As for me
I'm a calm farm boy
I'm a committed hard worker
I live a simple life
I work an honest job
I earn an honest living


I'm looking for a certain someone
That can be my one and only


Hallo dear
I see you, but I want to build my trust in you
Then you don't have to fear because I'm an honest lad

I'm a legal lady
Searching for my one and only
I have a million dollars
I live in a remote country
A thousand miles away
Lets take it and run away
Help me get it and we can go
Lets have it and be together forever

How can that be
I'm a believer now
That can not be
I've become more spiritual now
I'm not interested
I'm more saintly now


I don't want your money
I don't need your class
Money only corrupts the soul
Just give me your love


Dear
Just call the bank and they'll tell you
Just ask my friends and they'll give you the details
But my wicked uncles must never answer
We must keep it a secret
For no one must ever know
For everybody would want it

So you've even got friends waiting
You've even got bankers on your buckle
Now you say you've got wicked uncles out to get you
Don't tell me you've also got lawyers lingering
Or accountants calculating

How could I get involved
How could I get so greedy
How could I get so loose
How could I stoop so low

I'm a believer now
I'm more spiritual now
I don't need a million dollars
For the spirit is worth a zillion times

Dear mystery lady
You have to be completely honest with me
You have to be completely open to me
You have to be completely true towards me
Just tell me more about yourself
And I promise to like you for you
Where do you come from

Now you're being harsh with me and I don't like it
But why are you threatening me
Is that the way you're treating me
You make the pit of my stomach ache
You're full of questioning that will never halt
You're not my lover
You're not my husband
Who are you to ask me who I am

Dear
I don't mean to be harsh with you
I'm just trying to get to know you
You're upset so I won't ask

I could be more than your lover
I could be more than your husband
I could be your soul mate


So if you want to be my one and only
What should I do now

Nothing
Just be there
Don't run away
Just talk to me
Don't shut your mouth
Just share your world with me
Don't curl it up


Thanks for all the questioning
Thanks for all the words
I'm back in an exam room
This is exactly what I meant
You're full of lots of questions
You're full of lots of ideas

But I'm not sharing any more
I've told you all about me
And I'm telling you again

I'm a million dollar lady
Living in a remote country
A thousand miles away
Thats the truth
But you will not take it

Its a really small world
We'll meet in a really small way
Lets call it a day now
For it is getting really late

Its a really large spirit world
We'll meet in a strange spiritual way
You're not willing to share
You're not willing to open up
You're not willing to be honest
You're not willing to take a chance
You're not willing to be loved


The good work of a man has come again

Yeah, I think I see where you're going with this poem. The basic theme: trust. It reminds me of teens on the internet chatting with people they don't know and even creating a relationship with internet friends. It's a sweet, yet unfortunate story because it's so true. So many people want to open up, yet others who are caught up in the media believe that no one can be trusted... and yet... the world is not the happiest place, really. So many other people may not be trustworthy themselves...

This is such a complex storyline of yours. There's so much to interpret, so much to take in, so much to learn from it. It's very deep. :)

Ironically Yours, Blade and Blood
