Right now,
There is a child born,
Opening its eyes for the first time,
Taking in the light of a world it has not yet explored,
Breathing in the air that encases it’s small and helpless body,
Here I watch the crowds scatter
Vast amounts of doubts gather
I've steered my train of thought, trained the brain to block out chatter
Town after town, I traded what I had known
As tall as the clouds to you, yet are small as a pencil to the world.
Smooth to the thought, yet rough to the touch.
As Strong as a mountain to man, yet as weak as flower to nature.
Shelters, yet destories.
There comes a day where my life is happy
There comes a day where my life is sadness
There comes a day where my life is love
There comes a day where my life is frustrating and confusing
Hurdle down from the highest bluff my child.
One day you loomed forth from the obscure.
Venture into dirt and sand blank the division who coward.
Do not dare to bawl out to the floor.
This is my brother and I.
See? We are young.
We look like saints,
wearing neck pillows
on our heads,
his red, mine blue.
Our hands are in
a prayer formation,
Here I am
I am here
Mentally, physically
With love and with fear
Myabe Im not the best
At that or at this
But I show up, and I arrive
Which some cannot give
Where are you?
In the wind?
Whirling round and round
Filling ears with the lonely sound
In the earthquake?
Dizzying destruction and pain
What is 'here'?
The word I mean
Here
There?
'Here' -What does it mean?
Is it the physical manifestation of self?
Is it the moment in time that all of our cells agree to be contained in space?
Bro, you can’t fly
You don’t even have wings
I’m not saying give up
But please, PLEASE
Stop jumping off of buildings
This is not an action movie
No. You can’t call “Cut”
