The Journey

I have breathed you in it seems a lifetime of times, correlated in seconds becoming rarer. Each shorter than the last, each with more adoration as i exhale every molecule of trial and error. My cup artlessly empty at the commencement of our eternal long embrace. Filling gradually my cup of discovery, tracing the lines of wisdom leaving their trails on my face. Fighting my knuckles to the bone, then wishing you would leave as the paint cracks on our master piece. Dropping to my knees as the hallways loose their luminosity, becoming filled with cries as they echo for your kiss of peace. Without delay you cup my face & replenish me with hope, love & serenity. A few of the beautiful un-held possessions you grant this fading vessel. Perceptions changed, ties undone, silver linings captured by flashes of gratitude,then plunged into the weariness as i tire showing the threshold in our trestle. I have waged war upon war on you just to be met each time with another venture. Relentlessly picking at the wounds attained along our way, whispering promise of astounding adventure. Ungrateful! I am guilty! So many a times i have put to shame the vastness of your beauty. Demeaningly i have shunned your guidance & care. Blind to your intention of growth. Forgetting you are loyal to the exemplification of duty. Vicious to be benevolent. Timelessly this shall be your aspiration. In your ways and in your time you pulled the wool from my eyes to see the suffering as my inspiration. With each collision comes a valuable lesson. You taught me to embrace even the darkness a gift in itself through wisdom. Appreciation, love & patience! You created every situation for me to hold in my hand the key to freedom. Belated but felt i stand with new discoveries astoundingly compelled to give to you a tribute. Perceiving your perseverance enduring. Sharing now the secrets i hold! The greatest thing i am able to contribute. To my ever changing paramour i tip my hat! Owing to you my praise for revealing there can be no beauty without strife! With refreshed vision radiating from my appreciations for my abecedary. Known by all. L.I.F.E!!!!
