Scars riddle my heart
Each one a mark of beautiful moments and tragic stories
Yet I find myself giving it away still despite it all
I suppose it's to say my heart yearns for the pain
I only wish my mind did as well
But maybe my heart knows what my mind does not
If so then I can only trust it hoping that it is right and I can handle what's to come

Time sits still for a tree along a tranquel Creek
While time rushes forward within it's waters
Along it's banks I sit with my feet in the water watching bits and pieces of the world flow in it
The trees watch over the waters as I lay on my back to watch the clouds that are oblivious to everything as they fly above us

My lover and I sit in cool flowing water
With are eyes closed basking in the sunlight
We hear around us dragons dancing Along the waters surface
And feel ourselves being carried away with them as they love and play

Strings glow in the sunlight but disappear in the shadows
When the wind blows you watch the string flow like waves appearing and disappearing within the light and for those who are unlucky enough to witness such beautifully crafted strings find it's creator a merciless god

a soft soul walks by
young still not understanding itself
they walk in a crowd  of souls
they are torn, broken, weak, strong souls
each leaving marks on the soft pliable soul
whos only hope is not to lose itself on the crowd

I often heard others desire to be a bird however I never like the idea of being at the mercy of the wind
as nice as it would be to be as sure-footed as a mountain goat it's nice that there are no mountains to impede me
as much as I wish to be carefree like a jellyfish there are times when I find it best not to go with the flow
still even with the luxuries of being human if I could change I would
because despite I can go against the current it's only by separating myself from others
despite the land I walk upon being flat and paved each step needs to be firm
and even though the wind doesn't hinder  it still carries the voices that give me pause

be still for just a moment allow yourself to breath
gather your thoughts and focus them onto yourself
ask yourself how did you get here
let yourself smile in those happy moments
grow the best you can from the sad
look into yourself find your pros seek out your faults
accept both change only what you feel you should
project that into the future
allow yourself to imagine the transformation you wish to see
take a step
