losing face

Is this about the truth?
Or is this about humanity?

It is so much more endearing for a man to trust
when he is surrounded by reasons not to.
(as that is the way of all of the earth)

Can he disregard what is "right"
and see the truth in being moral

Can he bow to do what is just
to everyone and himself
at all times
without the worry of 'losing face'.*

If he cannot then he will never be good.


































* Losing some sort of imaginary game he is playing only with himself.

Dance

I found a light
It dances inside me
with love and colour and sound
Not antmore than i had hoped or wished
but above the stars, quiet and true.
At one with all that has the power to be
spoken yet unspoken in its nature
a rif. a cleft. a divide.
A ripple that slowly disperses
and smooths.
A shine that shines so bright
a warms that warms so true
a noise. a knowledge. a heatbeat.
that brings me back to you.

How long will the world wait until darkness unveils happiness
and all that is shining.
a clear day.
