Array ( [sid] => 127968 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => One [time] => 2006-11-08 08:32:10 [hometext] => Not sure what category i wanted to put this in .. i was actually writing a stor for my 3rd year short story class ..and couldn't make it work so i wrote this poem to help me .. it's about the story .. but i thought it stood alone okay [bodytext] => ONE

Can One undo
what two have done
to a young soul?

A soul that aged alone
in a world of stick man fantasy.
Watched the union
of those that should have been watching
become no more.
Both gone
one in body
one in mind,
youth left behind,
for One to find

But can One undo
what two have done
to a young soul?

His soul mends slowly
never completely
memories of endless solitude
fill dreams that
libation and toil
cannot erase
or even replace.

Barricades of the past
keep the hope at bay

can One undo
what two have done
to a young soul?

One could be the future
see through cracks in the walls
find a way in
set alight the solitary soul
allow the man to exist completely
and together with One

ONE

Can One undo

to a young soul?

A soul that aged alone
in a world of stick man fantasy.
Watched the union
of those that should have been watching
become no more.
Both gone

one in mind,
youth left behind,
for One to find

But can One undo
what two have done
to a young soul?

His soul mends slowly

memories of endless solitude
fill dreams that
libation and toil
cannot erase

Barricades of the past

can One undo
what two have done
to a young soul?

One could be the future
see through cracks in the walls
find a way in
set alight the solitary soul
allow the man to exist completely
and together with One
