Imagine The Number One


Imagine The Number One,

Being the only,

The single,

The lonely,

The cast away,

Even in its darkest days it manages to stand out above all,

I was that one,

We all were one at a time,

No calls to our name,

No one to blame but ourselves for the breaking points and dramatic shifts of our lives,

But we over come,

We play over the number one by finding something to express,

We find two reasons to be ourselves,

One for living, 

And Two for writing,

We can now teach and tell through massive context clues,

Metaphors vivid with excessive false meaning to others,

When we really intend on that,

The one understands other ones,

We now can never limit ourselves,

We may take a stand,

Push our meaningful words into exsitence,

And now one can show purpose to another.
