I'll Be

penned on May 29, 2009

I need
I want someone pure
In the most sense of the word
Freed from the torment of the past
Sees the world and life for the beauty that they are
Despite the vandalism
Hopeful, faithful, patient
I'll be patient

She will be pure and wisely innocent
Knows the world and lithe with inner charisma
Yet firm against the masses
And their shallow current
I'll be faithful

I will be pure
Breaking free from my torments
Tasting the beauty and restoring the blemished
With wisdom
Agile yet sturdy
I'll be hopeful
