Flow

The stars they sit and litter the sky

The ocean pounds the beach

I sit in darkness, the tide is high

And with pen and paper I preach

 

Of the insane serenity I feel right now

Ignoring the wind and cold

My sole focus is on why and how

The answers of life untold

 

But……

 

It’s when I don’t question

That I begin to see

Without thought or suggestion

This life was meant for me

 

All the ups, all the downs

All the smiles, and all the frowns.

Even now as I sit in peace

All life’s questions truly cease

 

For I do not care of the bad or good

I care only to learn

To better my life as I should

For that I truly yearn

The Light

The deprivation was not a rendition

Of what I thought I had become

It was in fact emotional commission

Of a child becoming one

 

The one who grew from the pain of the past

Was a man discovering himself

The time alone was violent contrast

A life as it sat on the shelf

 

Was it really lying dormant

Or did the subliminal message creep through

Life just became much more constant

This light provides a new view

Its amazing how one relatively unknown

Can make you realize the simplicity

You can find that feeling so close to home

It re ignites the electricity

 

So clearly it becomes apparent to me

No issue is ever that great

As the answer that will set you free

Quite promptly lies in your fate

 

Another chapter has been created

The grass is greener than ever

All the bother is now abated

Building upon new endeavour

 

The light it brings into my life

Is something that reverberates

Through my body like a knife

The feeling just regurgitates

Again and again the passion grows

In such a short frame of time

How it happened, no one knows.

But why question that which is fine?

 

This light will grow, from what I see

Into something I haven’t felt

I am sure, apparent it will be

Something positive I have been dealt
