The Glimpse
Introductions are too timely
I haven't time for quaint talk
Just be who you are
I will watch your walk
Did you see her
She's been in, back to her old ways
Your gift of mercy
Did nothing for how the system preys
It's just the way he is
His mouth is loose and tough
Don't be lookin' for kindness
From one who believes he is more than enough
Searching for outcomes
Have left me bankrupt in reason
But for me to withhold good from another
Is a blatant disregard, and treason
.....against LOVE
Hmmm, well that's interesting
I just saw something, a glimpse
Hard, cold relating isn't welcome
Under the canopy of LOVE's tent
That's it....that's all they know
Pow! Strike! Bang! AND STOP BEING YOU
No wonder their words are venom
And their actions are old, recognizable patterns, in shades of black and blue
How can I be soft
When the frostbite has taken away feeling
And armed soldiers stand guard
Around the last hope of life revealing
LOVE's true nature
Ahhh....yes, patience is the key to the Kingdom
...............and so, I wait.......
..........................for another glimpse.
