Clarity
The way humans rise
from every sorrow in life,
is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
The minute the tears stop,
And the water drops,
Comes a moment almost serene.
A perfect clarity,
This eventuality
Of the grass getting green.
Beautiful
I got a scar on my forehead,
Like a famous magician.
The first time you saw it
Your smile trippled.
I never viewed it like a scar,
Yet did I feel ashamed?
Well, you couldn’t see it from afar,
Since I grew my hair a great length.
You find my scar cool,
I know you do,
Yet what I like most
Is that the thing I thought of as a scar.
My spirit, my nature, my heart
Are the reason you fell from the start.
