I tried to see the light,

While seeking my inner fight

Somewhere between body and mind

I found my inner sight

Im fighting with all my might

To spread my wings

And take flight

But I cannot see my path

The difference between wrong and right

Who am I to judge

With these words I must recite

Everything I think I know

A feeling so contrite

I've lived many lives

I've gazed into the sun so bright

But I cannot see the end

Only endless stars in the sky at night

I'd like to believe that I am infinite

With a flame awaiting to ignite

Hopefully one day I'll be able to say

I'm more than just alright

For the lost ones I'll have some incite

On this spiral we call life

The journey of life is long

So I guess I’ll have to hold on tight

Why give up before we try

Spread our wings before we fly

I cannot say I came here prepared

I am suspended in the air

Won’t you come be in the sky with me?

Imagine the words

That were never heard

Have you ever,

wanted to respond to someone so badly

but

cant seem to find the words to say?

Have you ever,

let your heart battle

in a war with your brain

Have you ever

ignored the person you are inside

out of fear

of leaving everything behind

while your heart continues

to ask yourself why?

Have you ever,

cried yourself to sleep

feeling a void inside

thats as deep as the sea

Maybe its just me

or maybe its you,

these feelings inside,

thousands of shades of blue

...or is it just the moon?

Don’t you see

The patterns

within me

The complexity

Of all I am

And will come to be

Don’t you see

The way the trees

Dance through the wind

The way we breathe

From the life of their leaves

Don’t you see

The way the sun falls from the sky

Allowing the moon to shine

A subtle light

Filling the darkness

Lighting up the night

Don’t you see

These webs we weave

The way the moon

pushes and pulls the sea

Don’t you see

The life within me

The life within you

The light that lies within the truth

I’ve isolated myself,

And not many know my struggles.

You can find me

Somewhere between

Now and infinity

Drifting endlessly

What am I feeling

Do I even truly know?

Seems as though

This anxiety will never go

It lingers there

In the pit of my stomach

In the thoughts that I keep

It hinders me

From doing what I need

But I am only me

And I have to believe

That In time I will see

Where I am truly meant to be

People die

Love dies

But words,

Words,

are infinite
