cover over day light skies
Thoughts of you decorate
the lingering hours while I wait
For a chance to delight
my thoughts of you kept out of sight
From others who can't find a way
to understand how I appreciate
The moments we have been together
through a many type of weather
While others with no concept of
what it truly is to love
A face because it belongs
to the person not a song
Not a movie, not a book,
only a face as it looks
To me when we laugh to smile
if only for a little while
About a silly childish thought
that made between us indeed taught
That even though our days weren't perfect
with you they were always worth it
Changing, growing, as we went
without a false claim in content
Of our characters while we lived
learning of ourselves to give
Time to talk to understand
the person who needed to expand
Past some other's point of view
of what they were false or true
Needing moments to combine
the talents of our lives entwined
To nurture more than just a way
of living through another day
Welcoming new ways to share
a moment to forget the cares
Cast upon them by a world
that itself can't seem to cure
With all their geniuses employed
who have forgot the human joys
Of togetherness in every life
without restrictions and confines
To build up one another
as a sister as a brother
Keeping always in our minds
that love sets free not undermines
The sanctity of breathing life
inhaling, exhaling, making right
Wrongs that plague the soul from change
diminishing it's reaching range
Mistakes are made, corrected, forgot,
without the need to down trod
Keeping them from improving
all the wants where the movements
Growing in the thoughts of mind
improve the living when combined
With elements of all life's good
obtained as we could and would
Gather for a meal at tables, passing plates,
and serving ladles
With a hearthy helping of
a nourishment joined together in love
Where days were talked about from perspectives
of the others' daily objectives
Accomplished well, or in need of work,
help is offered never shirked
Oh the lives of mortals be
so full of things that can't conceive
The simple things that people need
when disregarded by the thieves
Whose own desires fail to please
their understanding of what they see
When memories in the making of
the day you live make mention of
A friendly face that gives you pleasure
remembering moments spent together
Dreaming one day they'll again bloom
into the garden scapes of noon
When sun is bright and skies are clear
so all who can and will appear
To delight in the moments
where their earthly life components
Combine to birth dreams fresh and new
into a future where the view
Is clear from pasts of wayward thoughts
welcomed where they may be sought
Another day when in need
of a smile to lift and lead
Them past darkness that looks to steal
the happiness of minds and wills
Set to accomplish what they can
in the lives lived as human's
Holding on to every good
in their lives as needed food
To feed their goals to keep them fit
with all of life's best benefits
