"He who gains a victory over other men is strong; but he who gains a victory over himself is all powerful."
Lao Tzu

Jumbled

Consumed, I sit
to write you away
in a jumble of cliches

To tell how you
are sweeter than a rose
and brighter than a star
But these are not enough
to capture what I want to say

With no worthy comparison
how do I show them
everything about you
that makes me blisfully insane

Perhaps this was only meant
to live in a dream
So with you hidden inside
I turn and walk away
