ALL THAT I SEE

ALL THAT I SEE

A Poem by traveling mind

ALL THAT I SEE

 

Flowers in the sky, diamond shaped eyes see right through me.

 

Some are strong and hold the rain, some are fragile and wilt.

 

Some are even so delicate the heat makes them fade, I myself

 

know which one am I, which one are you?

 

If I turn my back for a second, will the knife dig deep, or

 

will you make me grow, If I sleep with the silhouette of the moon,

 

will you howl with me, or will I always be alone?

 

Can you stand on your own, or will I need to be your cane? 

 

Don't ask why I need to ask so many questions, the answer is plain to see.

 

It's you I have been waiting for, is it me you want? I AM FREE

 

like the heavens angels, I grow with the warmth, and support,

 

but delicate enough to burn and I too have learned my lessons

all too well.

 

You are not the only one with bruise, even if you do not tell, I will see.

 

If I could I would ease your pain and make your fears disappear,

and keep you safe.

 

BUT I am only one person who can not lift off years and layers of mud.

 

Should I not embrace you because you have fallen into the wrong hands, just as I

have.

 

I am not the same as the others, I am like no other past, or present you will find, and

 

I am what I appear to be. Like the world of art of abstract, sometimes things seem

 

out of focus, do you see two of me?

 

I see now what you are made of, and there is nothing of an illusion. I see you,

 

I see what I have always waited for. I see you, I see the spring and the fall 

 and what it does for me.

 

The ground from where my feet lie, and the sky where my body flies free,

 

for when I am with you I am home, and that is all I know, and all I need.
