im beginning to understand <br /> <br /> <br />...everything <br /> <br />so, don't push it. i'm tired <br />i won't push it. you're tired <br />or maybe you're not. <br />you're just still unsure of yourself <br />unsure of who you are <br />what you are. and maybe <br />i'm too stupid to see <br />that i belong to you. <br /> <br />but it drives the living hell out of me <br />when you act like you're too immature <br />to handle any of the things i want <br />to share with you. death. life. love. <br />hate. passion. fear. anger. <br />and you see them all through a glass <br />a looking glass with dimmer view <br />a window with the curtains pulled. <br /> <br />i see that house is built with hands <br />to satisfy the soul of man. the width <br />of human fire. the subtlety of human passion. <br />the desire to fulfill the dreams of man. <br />that house is built with human hands. <br /> <br />you see that house is built with hands <br />to quench the thought of building a house. <br />for the practical purpose of living there. <br />to extend from the parent an unfulfilled promise. <br />that house is built with human hands. <br /> <br />that there is something <br />greater than this world? <br />that the very blood of Jesus <br />is the reason for my being? <br /> <br />you can't see what i see <br />so i cannot see how we can be <br />forever in this state of being <br />where i see the stars as eyes of God <br />and you see as hydrogen gas. <br />i see the sun as an angel of light <br />and you see as the absence of night <br />i see grass as a rug to soften the ground <br />you see as food for a cow <br /> <br />nothing... <br />nothing is wrong with the way <br />you see what you see. it's just <br />that i now can't see how you can't <br />see what i see now. for, i see <br />through my heart. and you see <br />through your head. and how close <br />we were to being one for eternity, <br />for there are but two letters difference<br /><br />Annie Cordelia Adams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/two-letters-difference/
