~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I said something Pulled something Just a stray thread From some distant garment I’ll soon come to wear The robe of reality Fitted by the things I say Whether whispered in innocence Or with calculated design The naked days have vanished With its harmony of love Unfeigned and unfettered By doubts, fears, curiosities, Wonderings, decisions, testings Just a pilgrim On a journey to bliss Sidetracked by chance And something I said

Funny how just a few words strung together can influence everything we do. But isn't that the essence of poetry? When one can see how so few words contain so many possibilities, one begins to perceive the true beauty of poetry.
