aware

I love my family and few loyal friends, I work hard and find joy in the little things. Admittedly I require a lot of patience but I love with everythingI have. I like old music and old movies; nothing replaces a classic. I crave challenge and can be a bit stubborn, but can admit when I'm at fault. I believe that humble is the best attitude to have and that selfish ambition is the quickest way to build a tower that will crumble and fall. My biggest fear is failure. I'm learning that every new day is both a lesson to be learned and another opportunity to serve Him whom has blessed me beyond measure.

i'm faith that's fallen hollow
and i'm hope you cannot have,
i'm difficult to swallow;
a cold and dirty bath.
i'm tales of subtle terror
and i'm lies in times of peace,
i'm disappointment's bearer;
formed of barbedwire and fleece.
i'm sorrow contradiction,
and i'm words you shouldn't say,
i'm narrow in dipiction,
i'm both predator and prey.
i'm ice in any season;
that sweet and sour gulp,
a s0ul thats tried for treason
and a fruit bereft of pulp.

you wink at me like a low flying plane
and i tiptoe into thoughts of leaving this place with you.
soon i wade in safe adventure,
my eyes steady with your signal
shooting across miles of my darkness.
i take you in until my focus adjusts;
as i get closer i see the outline of the
cold
metal frame on which your beacon is crowned.
you are a stationary tower
and my heart falls from a ledge as tall as your facaud.
