Never Tie Your Shoes
Rivers carve canals from your
Pretty brown eyes
You have this chime to your talk
Like a medicine bell-
You called me to comofrt.
You and I, we struck a familiar chord
But elapsed time drains the jovial spirit
Thus, your tears were like rain in Seattle
Inevitable to come
We became the other's grave-
I the gallows, you the noose
Heaven called.
You have always wished to fly.
You tied your shoes and
Grieved to heaven, your omniscint audience
The bow became you butterfly wings.
Your feet lifted above the ground.
Twelve tolls a beckoning bell

Life is a series of inproportionally divided inequalities, from the best parts of your life to the worst, and the gray areas inbetween. There often is a stark transition from the change in amazing areas in your life to the worst, without warning. And so, you have to ponder upon the darkest of times, that the darkness around you is the result of a receding light that becomes absolute darkness upon the absolute lack of illumination. Life naturally flows from order to disorder and vice versa.
