Quote from "Kahlil Gibran"
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires

Iris


I don't want the whole world to see me
Most are not capable but for those of you who can
you may not appreciate my beauty
and that's enough for me to keep a closed hand

Because I don't think that they'd understand
I quiver at the thought of such plans
A shattered heart is more than i can manage
Already alone in deserted lands

When everything is meant to be broken
How can I show you when the hour glass has cheated me of sand
Whats is left of life is uncertain
But as the seconds come so does another chance

I just want you to know who I am
Blood sweat tears and love exuberating from glands
The human element, the most vital thing known to man
Ingredients compassion, humility, and one single man
