Brilliance

Oh distant passion that waits beyond yonder crest
I see your reflection against the summer mists

The sun dims against your brightness
Yet you seek to fool my senses in feints and weaves

Do you not understand your own brilliance?
The stars weep for your breath

The sun itself reaches for your sweet kiss
Your chameleon skin cannot sustain the glory it contains

A tear fron your cheek lights the skies as
A shooting star of condensed passion, bringing beauty

And hope to those who see
The sorrow in your heart is the sound of angels to the seeking

You know the truest place where unity is not a word to ponder
But reality lived in the never ending moment

When your eyes open again into the dream
Your loss and passions stirring

Echo in thunderous chorus to awe the creatures of a smallest world
You cannot understand,

For the dreaming place cannot contain
Your enigmatic entirety

Your darkest thoughts send wise men into fits of doubt
You are only what you can be

And there is no other wish or way to know
The fabric of your spirit

But to seek it within.
