When I need the sense of belonging
To help me cross the chasm
To fill energy into the dumb brain's
sleeping energies
The lightening blaze that sheers through.......
I build a tent
In the back of my brain
And crawl into it
Here I cover the antiques of past
Well brushed to its shine
For In it I see the face
Of the girl
I lost along the way
Up the winding path.....
I blush at my ignorance
I stammer as words rush
then on second thoughts
Fall silent...
As I continue to gaze the stars
Counting my blessings
one by one
Till a grateful heart
wakes up from its slumber
Lord;
Is it true?
Do you really exist?
If so; show me the winding path
That will prick my senses
Add the joyous smile
To your lips.......and I finally reach you......
