    look for the light

    Once I was me, but now I'm gone.
    Finding that 'thing' to push me on.

    Sail me thru this world of fire.
    Stoke my fate, or build my pyre.

    Show me light, or switch me off,
    No shadow, no doubt,

    No shade, no sorrow.
    Just the light of tomorrow.
    ...the lumination of life.

    Don't want a dimmer,
    don't want a switch,
    just the everafter glow of happiness.

    Can't you see
    I'm dying, man.
    Drowning at sea.
    Just fading
    fading
    fading away.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
