Limits to the Heart

Written on the bus home from Ashland.

How
How do you know
When you've loved
Too much.

I know my limit.
It is how I get lost in your eyes
And I still don't know you.
It is how I yearn for a minute in your presence,
And never feel content with an hour.
In so many ways and questions,
You are my limit.

Why do I not wish on your love?
Love is a lovely thing.
Yet, love comes a time when
Love cannot love
And is not love anymore.
Until love is found once again.
And obsession lost.

Written so close to you.

-Milton

Look to Understanding.

I thought about this on the walk home a few days ago.

As he crosses the street, a girl stares at him through her car window.

With question and wonderment in her eyes, he stares back

And a simple nod.

And never understanding.

The old woman walking her dog.

Glances and turns to avoid

His pleading eyes.

She'll never understand.

Returning home, the boy looks at this familiar person.

Never known, with a lost feeling in his soul.

Trying with wishful hopes,

To find someone to explain his purpose.

Ending with the man in his mirror.

"Who am I?"

Not knowing himself,

A hand reaches over,

And whispers a gentle wind

"You are a son of God"

Never to fully know himself,

He stands up with a trust in God.

To understand is to trust something with all your heart.

Somewhat influenced by Loren.

Seasons of Love

I didn't write this, but I love the lyrics and the whole song in general. "Seasons of Love" is a song from a Broadway musical that's coming to film soon. If you'd like to see the trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/rent-seasons_of_love.html
