On the edge of everything a precipice caught between the brink and
the straight drop... we're given a choice. A choice that becomes one
with us and allows us to become something more all in unison.
I
don't mind if you're something out of the ordinary, extraordinary, new. I
don't care for the past that led me to here, down the dark shadowy
hallways to bring me to the clearing. All the immanent, present,
non-corruptible things are hiding out of sight and whatever I touch...
becoems mine. I keep my eyes focused to the groun watching my steps as I
take them each one by one.... one foot in front of the other... holding
my breathe with each waking step. Here is now, time is present, and you
get none of my presence if you beg to bargain away. If it's something
that you contemplate, something that you control, hold it tight till
you've exhausted all the possibilities before you through away the whole
ship because of a single leak. Duct-tape has been known too fix most
anything.
At times I catch myself smiling, not for the new present
I'm fully submerged in, but for the past I left behind and the secrets
that will never be told. I have no worries, no reason to hide. Nothing
left in my wake because I have decided to hop out of the water and go to
someplace new. Simple as that. If you imagine of holding someone I'm
not the person for you. I'm so sincerely sorrowful to your lack of
belief and your incredibly increasing ignorance. "If only you knew" is
the thought I hold close to me as I walk through the passing days
smiling. Dancing. Laughing. You will never know what it is like to be
this again. So I hope the memories are worth your ever present future.
I
have found something new, a tiny ticking passion carved out of the back
of my soul. It's something that was smothered down and pushed away so I
wasn't able to breathe let alone think of it. How am I to seek
something that is beyond being found? I'll tell you how, you listen to
the shallow rasps of your soul as it tries to regain moment, to exist,
breathe, dream, begin again and LIVE. In that moment, when the world
snaps back into place as if by magnetics, by science, magic, by
something divine and wonderful... all makes sense. There is no fear.
Nothing to hold you back by the neck screaming "NO!"
It is a
peace. Knowing that we are allowed to dream, to bend on the precipice
and decide to jump if we must. Where we land, it's something of a
mystery. But what is certain; we will never ever ever get venture back
to the place where we stood on open ground with the decision. We travel
deeper and deeper into ourselves as time goes by, as the ticking hums
along. We are human, we are a mass of passion, confusion, and emotions
twined together with one thing... our purpose. Which is simply something
we wish to find. Something so simple.
A wild card in game of
monopoly, that's what we become when we defy the normal. When we defy
the opinions of others. To stretch our boundaries. And baby? You can't
hold me back, not even for a second because I laugh at your decisions.
A
heart and soul is all we have to put into something, it's a wonderful
thing when we can obtain them back from our adventures and continue on
our merry way. Shield in hand, Sword at hip by hilt. There's a gleam
that trickles into your eyes with each step you take farther and farther
away from the past.
Yes, It's a lot of confusion but I wish to
only say one thing. There is more, and there is more than you. And do
you know why? Because you will never know. something so exactingly,
haltingly, priceless. To lose the most precious thing, and not know it
is lost... you will spend the entirety of your life searching for it.
I
am beyond joy, for the future is uncertain, the skies are blue and
open, and I'm ready to travel wherever it is that I must go. With
whoever by my side, the steady drumming of my consistent heartbeat being
the drum to solely my feet. We all have those things about us. Those
mysteries that will remain unsolved. So here is my question mystery
stranger. Who are you?
