Please note that this information varies, depending on where you look. The following poems are based on the above description. Give it a try- it's fun!
Lights
I love
when you smile.
Lights grow dim compared to
the illumination you send
to me.
Windows to Me
See me:
Transparency.
Can you see how I feel?
I hope you do. I hope you don't
see me.
Expectations
I know
I'll never be
who I want me to be.
Useless are my efforts to be
perfect.
On Wings Like Eagles
You don't
need me to be
what is impossible.
In my weakness, I find Your strength.
I soar.
