A smile brought me
<br />into the world.
<br />Under a shroud of stars,
<br />the light came.
<br />A consciousness of humanity.
<br />I remember those early days
<br />of dreaming and longing,
<br />when I had no interventions
<br />to tempt me away from innocence.
<br />I remember the little glimmers
<br />of sunshine on the grass,
<br />the warmth that pierced through
<br />the old, broken windows with
<br />the putty and the paint peeling off.
<br />A tear brought me loneliness,
<br />while shattered dreams exploded
<br />like cold splinters of ice
<br />as I sat in my solitude.
<br />I remember the futility
<br />of young, foolish dreams
<br />dashed on to the rocks
<br />of the world as it was.
<br />I remember being told
<br />unceremoniously,to follow
<br />a more 'normal' path.
<br />Flat and unending, each part
<br />made of the same type of brick.
<br />I remember these few years
<br />of fresh and invigorated mind,
<br />where your scenery dances
<br />before my brightened eyes.
<br />I remember the faces
<br />of those that spent the best of me,
<br />and those who sheltered me from harm's way.
<br />I will remember this time,
<br />your face, your eyes, your every smile.
<br />I will remember every touch,
<br />your whispers, your movements, your laughs.
<br />For you dance in my shadows,
<br />you play with them, and shape them,
<br />into something of your own creation.
