(700.) Let's See How Far I Can Reach 03/05/07 10:20 PM - 11:36 PM, 03/07/07 - 03/08/07 11:27 PM - 12:27 PM 03/10/07 6:49 PM - 6:57 PM
=---------------------------------------------------=
I will write only a few words here
then I shall reach out
and touch the souls of loved ones
return
and share my feeling
to answer you
How close does love get to infinite?
My Father:
His passion is in the stars
and the patterns of the universe
we are 92955800 miles from the sun
(with varying degrees of accuracy)
and I feel even if I traveled that distance
twice over
I'd be no closer to him in ideals
he says I am a reflection of him
23 chromosomes gathered and given
23 taken and combined
I am a reflection of you
and of my mother
and of the world
The world is a cold and ugly place
if you do not accept it's ways
my mother is probably no less
and you do not accept my ways
be proud of who I am
as I am the one who made it
and you made me
be proud of your seed
someday it will outgrow you
and provide more shade
than you gave it
Kassi:
She has no time for such talks
no time for me is what she means
I was young
same of her
and I found what it means to drink
of a cup of faith
faith in her
which I still place
but for once she revokes faith
and logic and reason
have proven the theory of me
to be false
It hurts
It truly hurts
when you see faith in you
diminish
from what you believed to be absolute
Watching God die,
is a sorrow undescribeable
My mother:
Has seen me from the start
and was always there
she shares stories of my intelligence
and I ask her to stop bragging
but it makes her happy
which makes me happy
she has seen the light I've chosen
to shine upon the world
and it is a light of my own choice
she told me early in my life
be you
be mindful of others
but be you
I am me
and she's proud of me
she has so much faith in me
that I am exponentially better
Kit:
He's my companion in laughs
He's not my trust bank
But he is my best friend
What defines a best friend?
The person who you respect greatly
for being who they are
and for sharing with you
who they wish to become
He has told me of his goals
but I don't tell him of mine
he's uninterested
and I wish not to bore him
but he still is my best friend
perhaps the ties go deeper than I realize
For the others:
I have chosen love as my religion
I have put faith in people
Some say it has false grounding
I say God is no better
I say I am no better
Than they
Love means so much to me
And so different
I tell few people "I love you"
Because to me it means:
Everything I have to give,
I give to you.
Were I to have more,
it would all be yours.
I need to love more people.
