More from Dad
For those vicious souls who have demanded more "Micah poetry". I give you these. Sigh, I wish people would viciously demand poetry from me. I guess it's like going to see a copy versus the original Michaelangelo. Heh.
Anyone and everyone, comment away. Just...to let him know that you like it, so that he keeps writing more.
And with this, I am off to Tateyama.

WE ALL LONG TO BE
Transport me to a place
Where love lives.
Beyond the sea of problems,
Beyond shipwrecked dreams.
Lift me on fair breezes,
Above the choking air.
Let me fly through stars of music
And lay forever with you.
Our lips forget tomorrow,
Two souls made one this night.
Let us peep into forever,
And make love by a crystal stream
That comes from that enchanted place
We all long to be.
WHAT DO YOU LOSE BY COMING?
What do you lose by coming?
You lose your pride, your independence
You lose your isolation and loneliness
You give up stress
You loose your inhibitions.
You lose yourself and leave the outside world behind
You lose so much, you should be poor
But what you gained is so much more.
You gained a touch of another's hand
You gained soft lips to ease troubled days
You gained a key to another soul
You gained release from the ordinary
You felt a touch of forever
And you forever longing for more
Addicted to what's beyond the door.
BEFORE I GO TO BED
Before I go to bed
Something I need to say.
I've never kissed an angel
But I know what it is like.
I've never been to Heaven
But I know just how it feels
I'm bound with the many ropes of life
But I know what freedom is
I've passed through the loneliest of years
But I know what one soul in two bodies means
I've known disappointment, discouragement, and pain
But I passed through the door out of fear
And had a glimpse into forever
Because I've been with you.

Flor,
That's super sweet what you said, but you are unique and have no double. Maybe some came from me, but you definitely are a step beyond. I'm thankful for any little part I may have had in making you what you are, and what you are becoming.
Love,
Dad
