The Hidden Seed

5/00

 

The path of the lost

Is only righteous to themselves

 

In their lips lays the truth

The truth of all their falseness

 

Of fruit that rots in vision

In words that irritate the hidden

 

In its about that time

So long ahead in life

The past will bring tragedy

 

Please cultivate the hidden seed

That floats lost, yet in creed

Take it and nourish it with love

 

Maybe you'll find a way

Transgression left to lay

The past can be washed away

 

It's about that time

So advanced in your life

And are you really satisfied?

 

Don't stay locked up

You locked the door

And ate your little key

 

Must I search to find it?

And If I fail?

 

Heal the hurt with words of kindness

Trust in me like I trust in you

Together we can find the seed in you

 

Find the way that leads out

Don't cave yourself in

You have your little lantern

 

Must I search it for you?

Well, should I get lost too?

 

A deep wound takes time to heal

Getting to know someone takes lots of years

And scars may never fade away

 

But you must find the way out

While we can upkeep each other

When I can offer you my complete

 

And If I can help

Then I'll be around
