sleepless musings….
I guess you really did it this time..
Left yourself and you’re open.
Lost your balance on a tight rope.
Lost your mind trying to get it back.Wasn’t it easy in your lunch box days?
Always a bigger thing to crawl into…
Wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in everything?
And everybody believed in you?
It’s some things you can’t speak about….But tonight you leave it all again..
You wouldn’t be shattered and on the floor now…
If only you were seeing what you know now… what would happen….
Wasn’t it easy in your firefly catching days?
Everything out of reach…
Someone bigger brought down to you…
Wasn’t it beautiful running wild til’ you ran out of speed?
Before the monsters caught up to you….
It’s okay…
Life is a tough crowd.
39 is still growing up now…
Who you are is not what you did.
You’re still an innocent.Time turns flames to embers…
You’ll have new Septembers…
Everyone of us has messed up too.
Life changes like the weather,
I hope you remember…
Today is never too late to
Be brand new.It’s alright….
Just wait and see your string of lights are still bright to me.
Who you are is not who you’ve been…
You’re still an innocent.
Lost your balance on a tight rope…
It’s never too late to get back.“Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle.
The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.”Ayn Rand
“Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure…than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.”
Theodore Roosevelt
