Fly to Meet Sea, Under the Mountains
If you should ever fall,
lose your way,
glimpse the fog engulfing
your hopes,
the road that leads you home
forgotten for a while,
look to the moon
for guidance, the veil
that keeps soul bound to love
bringing back hearts from ocean
lost for minutes or lifetimes
in waterfalls
of other people’s emotions.
Trying to reach a peak
when you walk under mountains
may seem like cracking ice
to swim up on air and mirages
but there’s no end to spirit,
fan of imagination
leading you to a place
you keep within
and leads you on
to meet what you can be
and have become
with this new breath,
stepping into this second.
You can be anything you wish
setting limits is just a matter
of logic
that goes misty
when twilight descends on the senses.
You will soon realize
the only boundary to dreams
is seeing colors of the wind
of change.
As soon as hues meet fingertips
you’re ready to step up,
link roads to wishes,
float on wave of devotion
and find again what you yearn for
no matter if it’s been in attics
of a childhood
or locked with tender dreams,
the tiny butterflies
too shy to take flight yet,
spreading smiles every time
they take curious steps to meet
future of tender passion
that stays in your heart,
and won’t let you forget
who you are
inside.
