Catalyst and Magnet

The bridge you walk over The water that carries you over the fall One whom singles out souls to meet other souls. I AM a human bridge. I know who will love you, and who would care enough to learn your name? I also know who would be made better by you. I Am a human magnet. I am that human ladder; The town crier. No one remembers who held the ladder, as they climbed to the pinnacle up to fame. You can name each of the people that you met at the top, except no one remembers, the ladder, the catalyst, or the climb, no one remembers that pull of gravity, or the magnetic force, that drew you toward the light, and deemed you to be exquisite. Who then shined the light on your exquisites and said? “If you got it, I spot it’’. ‘’Now the world is at your feet, and calls out your name… You know not who connected you, plugged you in and said shine on’’. With or without me...''Shine on’’… No one remembers the bridge,nor the water or the vessel, no one remembers the catalyst…but the truly grateful. The grateful realizes how they got where they are… The others, well they know… incidentally they seek out all of your haters,not by coincidence. In the end you watch them turn on each other… As they wear a mark of shame, plagiarism, disloyalty, and conceit. The lesson is ‘’everyone can’t see you; Yet, they really want to be you’’. Never mix nor mingle with your Catalysis’ enemies, your catalyst has a natural enthusiasm, or energy about you that causes others to want be in your shoes. The bridge, the magnet, the ladder, all matter. There is always someone who can get you to the next level; Yet, will have expectations and outcomes that will not be in your own interest. Like when the novelty is gone, when the thrill is gone, they will leave you devalued, like you never were. Because they never really knew your worth;Or your name! ‘’A true catalyst knows what the eyes speak. And what the heart holds’’.
