fragile relationships as is life
these lines drawn around us
happiness last only within
truth - we could only hope and strive for
thunder lightning amidst the rain frantic pour
the land lay parched as the oceans grew abound
the heart beat ferociously
and the all knowing mind limp with exaustion
the sun fiery bright golden red sky
the colors change from red to crimson
a thousand flowers in permanence of change
fill the lands with their graceful glow of silent death
their pain lay in the past conquests to growth
and the men and women blindfolded
practical painless grey truths
