place to start
it's quick with a
charming smile
and a laugh,
its eyes dance
and they glisten
in the subtlest of ways
some wise words
begging to be born
into this unrefined
world's dappled shade,
born screaming
into certain shadows,
haunted by the memory
that a world
much finer exists
just beyond our own
some sweet kiss
only the lost
can be drawn
to this place of magic
where the frost
of frozen yearnings
are sure to thaw
like morning dew
people dream only love,
and long for more than
short term relevance,
they wish to live
a nuanced and connected life
it is there just beyond
the confines of your senses
walk straight towards
the blinding radiance,
your heart
already knows
the direction
you will surely find
but first you must
tame your monkey mind
and get lost.
