There is a flame burning in the darkness And even if I wanted to I simply could not look away I cannot close my eyes, I cannot turn aside And, no, this feeling won't just fade, quietly No, no, no... It isn't like the light of a shooting star Brillantly bright, but only for a moment It isn't like a sunset or a sunrise Bursting with life,a mirad of lush colors, only to fade away And it isn't like a dream, remembered in bits and peices And yet... The intensity of this feeling is not unlike the brightness The glowing, sparkling brightness of a shooting star And the warmth that I feel is not unlike the colors The full fledged colors of life's pallete Still, it is in peices, but not in the way that you think For the peices fit together to form a whole... Different but not different The same and yet not the same Precious as it is rare And only as real as one believe's it to be... |
