"Paths" -- Frank Casimiro © -- All rights reserved 1998

Many roads I've traveled, through my nights and days
Some are sure and well lit, others fogged in darkened haze
My dreams divided good and bad, wanting to remember
The path that brought me to this place, this place of my surrender

Reaching out I reach within, to grab what makes a man of me
Holding on yet holding in, the contemplation sweeping free
Breathing out I breathe within, exhaling answers I now know true
To be loved is not only needed, but to love is needed too

The waters swiftly flowing past in this sea of learning
My thoughts are many fathoms buried, this heart is in a yearning
The tears I've shed have dredged this ocean many leagues dark and deep
The unfulfilled thoughts of love serve only to make me weep

Reaching out I reach within, to grab what makes a man of me
Holding on yet holding in, the contemplation sweeping free
Breathing out I breathe within, exhaling answers I now know true
To be loved is not only needed, but to love is needed too

Battered bruised twisted bent, I seek my souls reaction
I stumble fall and nearly trip into a broken fraction
I've listened to the giving words of many silenced voices
Now I wander here as one again, living with my choices

Reaching out I reach within, to grab what makes a man of me
Holding on yet holding in, the contemplation sweeping free
Breathing out I breathe within, exhaling answers I now know true
To be loved is not only needed, but to love is needed too
To be loved is not only needed, but to love is needed too
