A Passing Through



Decent into evanescences of energy

As lesser formative elegance if only to be dissuaded as such a passing

Thine eyes forever remember the bud to blossom
Never the decay for that a process said to be forsaken

Envy me not for I am lost only in flesh
Give to me nothing for I am forgotten
Pass me by day or night

Decomposition intuitive stares

Upon ambient reflections you will see me there,
Hidden deep in consciousness resting

For I have passed
But lost I am not
Forgotten I am only in the moment

Rise of the new day sunset dawn
I glow in the morning due
Like a star burst rainbows shivering near you

Impressive casting empty; tear drops
Like an hour glass frozen in thoughts
A manifest reminiscent bliss
