M's Poetry
Love & Forgiveness
I have to take the good with the bad
cuz hope and fortune
runs in and out my cracked window
I never believe it's the worst I have seen
I know better than to think it's the best
looking through these green eyes
I know I haven't seen nothing yet
still a babe in the woods
still learning my way around the hunter's gun
darting in and out of danger
I long for only love and forgiveness
Each day is a new page in the same book
it's a game of chess with all the complicated moves
and even though I am running
I am going nowhere
the lights will lead me to the river
so I can bath and be pure....at least for a little while
I seem to be running all the time
but ain't going nowhere
this baggage I am saddled with
don't seem fair
but it's just no use to whine and wail
I will preserve
find the secret key one day
that makes the secrets bearable
and my torch lit on positivity
I ask for only two things
love and forgiveness....
