I Swear we'll Never die.

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?
