Like a Rose



Your beauty is like that of a rose,
such delicacy and fragrance that everyone knows,
the loveliness satisfies even the most obscured,
and beauty such as this can't be described in one word,

The aroma of a rose is so fragrant,
and just like it,you have that same lovable scent,
a scent that can be smelt from miles away,
and must be followed at any time of any day,

Your skin is so soft and gentle,
it has the tenderness of a newly picked rose petal,
a feeling that soothes the very edge of your fingers,
and when not being felt,that soft feeling still lingers,

The thorns contribute to it's protection,
but this kind of pain gives greater affection,
and just like the thorns,you can also harm,
not only a guys heart,but also his love and his charm,
it all depends on the way you are retrieved,
tenderness and delicacy are what should be achieved,

Your beauty is like that of a rose,
such delicacy and fragrance that everyone knows,
the loveliness satisfies even the most 

obscured,

and beauty such as this can't be described in one word

Peace is the highest and most strenuous act of the soul, but an entirely harmonious act, in which all our powers and affections are blending in a beautiful proportion, and sustain and perfect one another. It is more than the silence after storms. It is as the concord of all melodious sounds ... an alliance of love with all beings, a sympathy with all that is pure and happy, a surrender of every separate will and interest, a participation of the spirit and life of the universe.... This is peace, and the true happiness of humanity

- William Ellery Channing

You Never Told Me

You said you could climb the peaks of life to awaken pain
Even as flashes of madness called you their own
Understandably, I still loved your careless flaming heart
With a watchful face which recalls taking hold
Of your broken chains

You told me the sky hurled heroes upon your summons
Though I know, you still claimed visions shared
So I came and went until you were pleased to let me
Sing the tune of the tongues of angels
To your warrior heart

Beyond the start of centuries stroking cloudy shores
Better than a silent idea you let be sought
Lies the voice of courage clinging to those ideals
You sustained when you named fear
As no such thing

But you never told me that sometimes it rains on love
Or how often you hide when it comes a flood
So when the quiet came I thought you didn't care
I decided to climb the peaks of life myself
To sing pain back to sleep
