Just cause



Just cause you say it
Doesn't make so
Just cause you wish it
Doesn't make it real

The question came
What are you looking for
Her voice bordering on the mystical
Running with a spiritual predator
Its wings  spread wide in its embrace
Her voice pleading in a quiver
What are you looking for
Tell me cause I think know
I have stopped looking
Searching for perfection
Becomes a story about the journey
I will know when it is standing before me 
Like the blooms on a cherry tree
Or the sound of water dripping 
Off the leave in a thunder storm
Perfection is amongst us all the time
Learning to see it is the battle
Learning to live with yourself
Before living with someone else
The question lingers all the same
What are you looking for
Sounding like a challenge 
As the goblet it the floor
Intelligence behind the eyes
Intangible integrity 
Honesty with dignity 
A sense of humor that goes with the tears
Not every thing is a contest 
Even in defeat

Just cause you say it
Doesn't make so
Just cause you wish it
Doesn't make it real

You have to say
In order to make it so
You have to wish it
In order to make it real
