cycle without end.

The screams of birth echoing throughout the land.Eyes opening for the first time.

Growing and learning.Crying out of joy and misery.

Smiles of pride and sinister intentions.

As one  begins to walk, one learns through pain and instinct.

As one lusts they will later learn to love another as well.

Rising high and falling hard.

Finding the "one" and creating many.

Then the great change.

Slowing and falling fast.

First the flesh then the mind.

Leaving behind the lips you once longed to kiss when you arrived home.

Missing the young you helped raise.

Closing your eyes one last time where you lay your head at night.

Never to enjoy and fear taking part of life again.

As time goes by moon after moon.

Your flesh will enrich the soil and bring about new birth.

This too will go through the the  "cycle"

Like every living thing does.

Like I continue to do as I lay down to rest in my bed this night.
