INTO THE WILD

Horses are beautiful creatures.

They have such grace.

You don't tame a horse by beating it.

You tame a horse by making it feel safe.

I have so much in common with horses.

I want to run,

Feel safe,

Be free and wandering, 

In the company of love and peace.

I've never been one to be afraid.

But I always want to run and avoid.

I've regretted every time I used my horns.

Maybe that is why I suffer.

I'm a bull that aspires to be a horse.

Is it possible that I can be both?

Don't let my unusual strength, 

and horns fool you.

Yes, they can hurt without much effort.

But I've no interest in that.

I just want to be.

I'm not a horse, 

I never will be.

And though people rarely,

Show love or appreciation,

Even when I most need them,

They always want to use me.

I'm as useful as a creature was ever made to be.

My beauty is mine, 

In its magnificence.

Look deep into my big dark eyes.

Can't you see?

I deserve to be loved and wanted.

I was made for it.

It will come to me.

INTO THE EMPATHY

Too many images.

Too many sounds.

Too many people appearing without an invite.

The mind of the empath is crowded.

Without its strength, it's useless and wandering.

Distances are meaningless.

And the world is only getting more connected.

May you have peace,

and love,

those miracles that help us all survive.

 

INTO THE MOMENT

It's called, the present, because it's a gift

To synchronicity, the food package, with this writing on it, was contributing

I am alive, I can breathe the wind, and the roof is doing a good job

Parents, friends, and the job's biweekly paycheck, I'm grateful for a lot

Yet, I feel like my life is falling apart

I had wished for changes, I dreamed them till they were real in my mind

I was supposed to stay happy till they actually came around

But then came the moment

The present is complicated

After all, it is happening all the time

I tried ruling the moment

That climax that never ends

Instead of bringing more, I have wrecked what I got

You have to let go to make room to receive

For some reason, I imagined a smooth transition and changes that come softly

I didn't realize what helped me hold on would be taken unwillingly

The moment doesn't have what I leaned on in the past, or what I wanted in the future

I'm firmly standing in the middle of it

I don't dare to dream ahead, while standing in the wreckage of what was

It hurts too much to think of what I wanted, and I'm supposed to keep it up and positive

The dream that sent me to heaven is now dangerous

The moment is complicated, or perhaps I'm the one who is

I still believe the only way through is forward

To the present, I apologize to you ahead

It's you that I will choose to forget

In other circles, that doesn't sound very healthy or sound

Don't blame it on me

Blame it on the law of attraction, and what it says I have to do, to be aligned

I'll follow this road for a while longer, and trust

Who knows, I think at the end of it, the present will be found

INTO THE SUDDEN CHANGE

The ship has sailed.

I didn't know I was boarding it.

I just found myself aboard.

I let go of the ropes I had to the land.

As everything I longed to see started to get smaller in the distance.

I told my heart not to speak.

This is not the time for any of its words.

I want to be brave.

It's a choice, that I want to make.

I want to let that pride go.

Give it up with all the stress and anxiety that it has brought.

So much more has gone with that trade.

Much more than I bargained for.

 

Did I really know love?

Or was it all imagined in my mind?

I only see water everywhere around me.

The tide and high waves speak volumes,

to any thoughts or attempts to fight.

Now, all is lost, all is gone.

I can keep what I carry, like I have always done.

It is that time, to move on.

My poor heart, you will have to break in silence.

We can both cry together later,

when the waters have quieted down.

Today, we're still trying to give up.

Tomorrow, after a good night of sleep and rest,

we will find peace, and we will accept.

I'll get to go through what I carried,

and to the sea, a lot more of it, will be lost.

I have magic within me.

The waters and moon will let it grow.

My heart, we will travel the universe, 

and its wonders, will wipe your tears, and heal your scars.

The sweet surrender, with some trust now, will be ours.

We're bound to run into land again.

It's time to get some rest while we can.
