Body language says a lot about a person Thoughts speak volumes And you wear your emotions on your face Longing to be clothed in grace And tactfulness But you stand still And stumble over Other people's ideas trying to keep your own Trying to find truth in the unseen and unknown Because what is shown are mere traditions Coming from where your from Some things are not better left unsaid But they go unheard anyway Silence confinements and restraints on the way you conduct your free flowing thoughts And you were taught to let go of what gives you life Questions go unanswered and unasked And the last thing you want is to move too slow Or too fast And deep breaths bring in the uncleanness of the past And the last thing you want to do is end up cast out The parable of 2 worlds Misunderstood and misconstrued by her reality Lost in translation and degraded by false mentalities Separated from the Truth for so long she started to doubt Until she got down one day and prayed for a way out Prayers answered Eyes opened to the Truth She could See No longer ashamed of being naked It was no longer a physical thing In battle we fight We bleed and we die But we rise like the sun in the morning sky Like smoke and hope and heat We have a lot in common Too deep for understanding Defeat is not real Feelings and logistics Live and Be
