the bug analogy

moving thru the dark of night
i see a glimmer of your light
it intrigues me
i move more closely
so bright it shines
i wish it was mine
the more i gaze upon it
the more i want it
so beautiful is your light
piercing thru the dark of night
so much better i can see
all the world around me
there is life in your light
so much better than the dark of night
i am drawn to your light
i think that i just might
stay here
hover here
dance here
live here
in your light
your marvelous light

love defined

some ask how you can be loving
there’s too much bad for that
people everywhere are suffering
therefore, they say, you don’t exist
but what is love
the greeks have several words
we have only one
some say it’s a verb, some a feeling
who can determine it
who can define it
you speak of it more than anything else
love comes from you
it is you
who are we to measure it
to determine it
to define it
you are so much higher than our greatest thought
only you know what love is
you determine it
you define it
you are love

inside my head

inside my head
sometimes is wild
imaginations swirl around
in constant activity
what? where? how? when? WHY?
answers falsely appear
inside my head
sometimes is gloom
imaginations drone to despair
no driving will
numb, empty, lost, alone
darkness rapidly invades
inside my head
sometimes is scary
imaginations overcome
the world no longer real
inside my head
sometimes is mild
imaginations cast down for truth
that no weapon
formed against me
shall prosper
