oh, and also…

“Is this how its supposed to feel…”

Take it as it comes, with a
Wide open world, oceans crashing
The shorline bright and shining
Welcoming the tidal return of hope
Free flowing and not the least bit
Overwhelming.
I don’t scare easily, and I can feel myself
Spinning.
I’m not losing myself in this, that’s no danger
Its like I’m finding myself, learning to
See things differently,
My toes digging into the sand and clinging to life
As the waves come.
The truth is its easy for you to knock me over
But the laughter in your eyes when I stumble, grinning
Is enough to make my introduction to your waves
Brilliant.
I want to dive into those greenish-blue puddles
That twinkle with twilight even in the
beauty of early mornings – lingering starlight
And a world full of hope,
Promises that are silent, unspoken
But read just the same like a fairy tale or
A favorite childhood story
That I’m only beginning now to understand.

“Is this what everyone’s been telling me… Is this how its supposed to be?”

I don’t put much stock in “supposed to’s” anymore. I’m finding my own way, and we’ll make the rules up as we go along, just so we can break them while tumbling in free flight over the edge of this world, laughing.
