even if i am named Gold, it was only today its meaning seeped into me as i thought about it in relation of us. Its a noble metal (doesn't react), lusturous and always appreciating in value/noble qualities. Its malleable and useful both in need and in com


We, the people

Its strange to sometimes find
people moving away
for one reason or another
some will heap shame
as an excuse to move away
some will issue threats
before moving away
some will simply drift away
to appear as a dream again
some remain but as remains only.

And because they are there
How comforting is to find people
who walk side by side
witness to your days and life
supporting and rooting for you.

And then may be you find someone
who surrounds you
even if he or she is not around
who touches you so deep
and holds you so near
that your skin feels like
their skin
and your mouth feels like his
and as years add
everything in you
that was gold
turns wine.
