Letting the Light in
Everything is swirling and spinning
'round 'n 'round in my head
Their decitful kind eyes and sacchrine smiles
lure me in but shun me all the same
For in their eyes I am who I am painted to be
Clay, to be modeled and shaped into their molds
In a plastic and leatherhard state
But only after firing are they surprised
The resilient greenware that emerged from the smouldering kiln
Hot to the touch and holds everything that they cannot
The levels and boundaries are forever changing
what they want to see reveals itself
But the true treasure is still stands
Finally taking the comfort and covers off so that the treasure is seen
Opening arms to embrace the unstable yet promising future
We cracked then shattered far beyond what could be pieced together
We stretched then grew into the glue to piece the shards together
But had enough for one piece
No longer merged together in an intricate pice
But simple and calm vessels ready to be filled by the uncertain future
Finally, at long last, we let the light in...
