[bodytext] => Once again the tide turns- The universe, It never rests. Soon, today will become Tommorow's yesterday, And, I too often forget to reflect On the seldom bites of sweetness I had once swallowed. I know too, That I will become like you; Old in my bones Back hunched down to my knees, Wisdom below my teeth Waiting for an honest ear To waste a fading breath On those who fail to hear... I too see the world- Chaos about like a thief; Splendor is no more Then a cup of coffee And well written word. Where is the ecstasy that felt like heavan? The cosmic certainty we talked about... If the angels knew of sin, Surely they'd clip their wings Because sex is better than flying, But it seems that love does not exist... Or, have I failed to see it? It's in its mystery I can't resist.. But still, I cannot spare one moment, One single drop of faith When all I see is suffering And the absence of meaning. Now my mind is all I have to offer But, I have yet to give it up Beacuse misery loves me With a sharp tongue And sometimes the bitterness Becomes just too much....
