sometimes the message is understood; even if it’s written poorly
the raindrops that fall on the flowers’ petals are the ones we admire
imagine a bird trying to carry its shell the rest of its life
as the flowers fade the industrial buildings pay no attention
we each have a gate that we can close or open to let in others
in order to help we must let go of the thought: what’s in it for me
we guess the future and compare it to the past to define today
as life passes through a shadow is created never repeated
you can never win a staring contest with a dressed up garden gnome
taken at first glance we may think we know the truth chances are we don’t
