A Little Magic
June 18, 1998
there lies a place in my mind where thoughts of few will tread
a land of peace, a heartless space where hurting cannot be
here I cherish a person I will know for ever on
found, that flower bloom, blossom in mind
which I alone can see
they will call it a children ��s fantasy, never to happen
a story of people joined by love of life
if they could even start to tell
I have the words to do more than begin
yet that shall be enough
in the land of peace lie two tracks
one with the other beyond all means of humanity ��
beyond body, beyond physicality, impractical ��
it is a story of peace so few will have
I find myself one of these so few
in fantasy lies mind to mind
tales of those joined by more than life alone
a place filled, never again empty
warm to rising sun, warm to naked space
the world ��s millions can cogitate
yet we few will know
there is a safety of sorts in numbers
but those who cling to safety ��
find nothing
what of risk ��
I would swear there will be no pain
yet it is inadvisable to so swear
such power is beyond us simple folk
the joining stands
I can tell of love
yet to tell is useless always
love is just another word like any other
heard as wanted to be heard
to you I can say ��
only that we have found peace in a world of turmoil ��
our beginning night a preparation for sun ��
that beginnings need not always lead to endings ��
only that we need never again be alone ��
and of love
anyone can mesh the word with what they will
a word can change by interpretation
one person to the next
I will hold nothing to a single changing word
I have found peace at last ��
a peace that needs no words
a place in the mind where two lone tracks
cover each other ��s footsteps �� and in mind
here it is that I see �� but one set of tracks
twice deeper than before
the alternatives were clear
some paths joined only to laugh
some split, others broken
only the few becoming one, infinite
walking in peace, ever on
there lies a place in my mind where only a few will tread
and there the tracks are clear, set forth indelible
allow my mind opened to you
never to close
I fear to say love ��
the word is too malleable these days
I can only sit by our joined tracks and smile
I cannot tell them apart any more
for with you I become completed, we
far more human than alone
