I know
I am not the only one,
Thinking this
Was ever said and done.
I know
It was said before,
This is not new
But today there is more
And there you are
There you stand,
Motionless and mesmerized,
With a smile and a flare,
You took a look
From here and there
Gathered ideas and went elsewhere,
You are David
With all of its flaws;
You are what no one did
You saw him close
Nothing is truly beautiful
But everything has a perspective
Nothing is cruel
But instincts crawl unrepentantly
David stands
Not ageless but above
Historical and grand
Misunderstood and loved;
You see,
In the silence where you breathe,
There is no sign but simple ease,
And in the space where David is,
There are those who view
And those who know,
Little about this is new
Except for the irony so cold,
Of seeing but not having
But seeing what David holds.
