I have been captured
By my own beauty
For when I look
Into the
Cool
Blue
Pool
Of your eyes,
The reflection I see
Does
So easily
Hypnotize
Me
Oh Narcissus
What shall we do?
How has it come to be
That our whole world
Has been
Captured
By this pool
Are we destined
To sit here
Starve here
Waste away
Bear a field of flowers
Fed
By the beauty
We never want
To fade
Away?
Or can we break our gaze
Find but a moments pause
To look up
And see
The immense beauty
In the mountains
Lush forests
Lazy flight
Of a million bees
Can we let go of our frenzied greed
Trust
That God
Who gave us this gift
Will keep on giving
That there are other pools
Other loving eyes
And indeed
Find ecstasy
In the giving
In the letting go
In the pain
In the nurturing
In the sweet
Gentle
Saying no
To our heart
Drowning
In its own
Perceived
Need
