Hidden Cherries

In the maze of my heart,
Can't find where I hid,
That blossom of innocence,
That laughter of a fool.

Aches that I've forgotten,
Those gumboots drenched in mud,
The tickle of a soft feather,
That marbles glitter in the sun.

Running behind kites of joy,
Not knowing they are about to fall,
I peek into the dark room of my heart,
To find my last birthday candle.

Teach me all over again,
That wisdom can't breathe a smile,
That insanity is sickly sweet,
That dreams begin before you sleep.



Guess I'm still playing hide and seek with my soul.
