This i protect

He chased his dreams
like a falcon chases its prey
blind to everything else

and when he opened his eyes
he was 
exactly where he wanted to be
and he was
entirely alone

he paid the price of dreams
for he knew not another way
and so he opened
my way to my dreams 

since my way is so much easier
i keep my eyes open
i take care not be distracted
by single mindedness

i can afford to make time
for what makes me smile

and i guard my intimacies
Like a little butter lamp
Fighting torrential monsoons
