Like the Wind

Sat, 11/23/2013 - 17:31 -- AmyLeya

Like the wind

We blow aimlessly

Never following paths

Never letting life become a series of lefts and rights

 

Like the water

We flow beautifully

A magnificantly deadly sight to behold

And others either dare to join us or watch from miles away

 

Like the sun

We burn bright

Never ending

Always watching

 

Like the stars

We are there, whether invisible or in plain sight

And every night we join hands

And our numbers grows from one to countless

 

Like the moon

We come out early, late, on time, or never at all

And if we choose to never show up

People will either wait for the eternity we take or they won't

 

Like the earth

We are a beautiful array of colors

And we move in endless motions

A perfectly balanced system

 

Like the sky

We are vast and immeasurable

And people stare until they grow used to us

But they always return back, needing a bit more

 

Like fire

We are dangerous

And we start as just a spark

But we will engulf the whole world before dying out

 

Like the universe

We are one that holds infinity

An expanse of imeasurable beauty

Begging to be explored

Because we are not just like one

We are like many

We are many

And people will stare

Or they'll walk right by

But they'll never forget us

Because we are only like ourselves

If we can believe

And if we believe

We will finally be ourselves
