Adessa
Clarity is what I see
Serenity, a distant lake, calm tranquillity
Curiosity of the known, viverance for the unknown
Love of life seen through shades of slightly tinted foresight
Honor, Trust and respect, the fortitude of an angels step
Ability to be, well beyond what the true beauty sees
Simplicity in things of learning, complexity in yearning
Wild side apparent, a deep, undying-love and honor transparent
As a child, only in the sense of honesty and sincerity
Adolescent in the means of self-fulfilling accomplishment
From head to toe travels an energy that very few know
Energy known as Karma or soul but honesty says a heart of gold
