Clear View
Life is a mystery
everyday writing a piece of history
becoming entertainment
at the same time
becoming heroes
Only today
does yesterday become clear
out of the darkness
today shines upon the past
Understanding the questions
we once asked ourselves
after having lived through it
it's like looking into a rear view mirror
Seeing all that was done
making sense of events
after the stress
Learning to trust
growing in faith
only after being tested
tried each day by fire
Only shining
as gold
after the fact
things are clear
