Evolve

with the wind at my back and a cool breeze on my face toe to heel, shoes click-clack as I walk about this place as I live this life and pray for better days box up all the old stuff and stow it all away looking for the answers to the same old questions breathing in the dust from previous misconceptions narrow is the road that is paved with the truth wide is the trail that leads away from you I listen to that little voice here deep inside of me whispering of the sweetness but it doesn't set me free the sand has many footprints, swept clean by each new tide and the moon that glows upon the sea reflects where it resides I yearn for something better, hope that's undeterred what comes as promise in a dream, each morning the sun blurs still I have my reasons--why I've held on to the past knowing way down in my heart it wasn't built to last the answers to the questions stay here unresolved there is no gestation, when love does not evolve
