Natural Progression

When I look at you
I’ll tell you
What I see
An example of
Maturity
Security
Stability
A definition of
Intellectual superiority
In your mysterious complexity
Without any difficulty
You awaken me
From a restless sleep
You waken within me
Something buried deep
Climbing up
The incline; steep
The only reward
Is the ability
To reflect inward
To project sensitivity
Outward
So that the world can see
You’ve got a grip
On reality
If only
They could see
How hard it was
How hard it is
How hard it will be
To keep on living
Naturally,
Progressively
Conservatively
