They're easy to catch but eventually fly away


LADYBUGS ARE MADE FOR WISHES

They're easy to catch but eventually fly away

LADYBUGS ARE MADE FOR WISHES



In the intervening hour
Beyond conscious thought
MAN fights for every breath
Praying for the fifth time in one night
"Just let me get out of this one"
Ladybugs are made for wishes
We all have wishes
But before too long
More stunts to mangle are taught
DISLOCATE
Fiery tempers
Wrathful breathing
A fight to establish dominance
A battered planet
New and Jarred teeth
RICOCHETING
Hauled into brick walls
Disbelieving hearts
"Disarm and we'll talk"
As humanity sits and cowers, inviting it's own destruction
Evaporating the freshness
Under an intense dream

Life is not a problem to be solved but a mystery to be lived, and in the like manner, love can never be explained, it can only be experienced.

"What oxygen is to the lung, such is hope for the meaning of life!"
