Embrace with love

If I'm not allowed to fall, I can't learn to walk Through peace with falling, I rise again in strong faith When I climb a mountain, I see its lowest point By peace with the lowest points, all fears dissipate Even while traveling, I long to stand still Thanks to such stops, the journey feels more intense Deep below my strength I sense there is softness Thanks to that softness, much stronger I am Do I choose to shine, it illuminates what seems dark, not remembered and overlong unseen, When I embrace with love, everything that once fell returns to a state of purity And just as I stand still, I long to travel Thanks to the traveling, my path unfolds before me Narrow but passable, enlightened by love, so if I do fall again? Then I can only fall… very softly
