Warmth of a Cold Heart

ever seen a sun ray cut through the mist?
ever seen a mirage dance on a rainy day?
ever seen a rainbow after a sand storm?
ever seen a pauper with a queen dine?
i have,
i have seen lillies make love to roses,
i have seen slaves rise above kings,
an empire crumble to an ants march,
seen flakes fall on a summer eve,
i have felt the warmth of a cold heart,
felt the death of hunger on a piece of stale bread,
and to this the joy of a falling tear,
that all the pain away drains,
and goodness did grant this lonely soul,
that of love never had,
untamed,
a charriot on a broken wheel,

take my sight and see my side,
to those slopes behind lie,
to the streams down flow,
a world to which i fall..
