My love is like a dewdrop

Glistening in the morning sun

The very star that will dry it

From existence.


Thinker


In science, a vessel is a tube that allows blood to flow

These vessels come in all different

Shapes and sizes that are hard to even know.

In the Bible, a vessel is like a potter

For he is the chosen one a treasure in earth.

These vessels come in all different

Faces, colors, creeds, just the one that birth

In the street a vessel is a path that leads to a way in the right direction.

These vessels come in all different

Sizes, avenues, ways rough or perfection.

Here a vessel is what gets you a step up in life.

These vessels come in all different hearts, people,

Even husbands and wives.

In your heart, a vessel supplies what you need to truly survive

These vessels come in all different

Widths, lengths, corners and even hives.

In your brain, a vessel passes motions and even different brainwaves.

These vessels come in all different

Reactions, correspondences, to the life they pave.

We all need some type of vessel.

Don't cut them off because you don't understand.

These vessels come in all different types of lives, whether it is a woman or a man.
