A poem about getting through
I've been several people
Since I was born
From Mr Excitement
To Mr Forlorn
Swapping and changing
Running and hiding
Reacting and acting
Slipping and sliding

Hating the world
And everyone in it
Then loving you all
Within the next minute
Rolling a dice
Around in my head
Thank you Luke Reinhardt
For all that you said

But I need no dice
I race as it is
From Mr Depression
To Mr Bliss
The world is a wonder
For us to explore
Close your dark eyes
Now open the door

Glide with me soft
From one side to the other
Come with me Father
Sister, Brother and Mother
Breathe deep and slow
The smells of the earth
Touch, see and feel
The land of your birth

Look at the depths
Or don't look at all
For these are the scenes
We see when we fall
Rise up with me
To the skies high above
Filling your lungs
WIth the nectar of love

Life is surely
An abstract creation
Seen not with eyes
But through contemplation
We're in it together
It travels so fast
Peopled with heroes
From now and days passed

I weep and I smile
When I look around
Amazed at the life
That at last I have found
My beautiful girlfriend
Will soon be my wife
It's an incredible world
It's a wonderful life.
