"Perfect"

Paul submitted this poem last week.  - poetheart 02/28/02

Tonight a single prayer has been answered
A reflection gently gazes back at me
As I question whether I created a reality
A reality strewn from needs
Or a passion of comprehensible love
Ohh, no longer a burden
And no longer in disguise
A face that seemed to change as
The night went on and whispered
The perfect words to me
Persuasion in an inhuman
Sense not by majority
But by a single thought

Ohh surely I can't express
Or rationalize…I can reflect
That single thought in that gaze
And know that tonight I have
Once again begun my journey
