Sacrifice None of You


Sacrifice None of You

Pretend to be something
other than you
what you pretend to be
the moon reflects back
to you
but you won’t admit it 
The crippled don’t walk
and the blind don’t see
Be all of you
Be all of you
All and all
Find the wings you never knew
Happiness
through
and 
through
The roses die
but come back again
again
and again
