How Could I

Cynic

How could I forget such a revelation

To love without fear and learn without question

How could I regret the meant occasions

I must begin this day again



Freedom and reason shine through

Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe



How could I



Humility take charge of me

Drown me in truth's modest waters

Loosen your grip identity

Free me from an ego's falter



Love too often is only a dream

If I am harsh and unkind to myself

So I share these attitudes with you

Must I try? How could I?



Freedom and reason shine through

Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe



Love's too often only a dream

If I am harsh and unkind to myself

So I share these attitudes with you

For in this spewing cavern of pride

How could I!
