Life Is Beautiful

It's amazing how quickly a mind can heal A not so distant memory that I will never be able to forget But this unwelcome intruder no longer has the ability to cut me to the bone My brain wonders how someone could be in this much pain And still keep on living, breathing, sobbing My heart never allowing me to surrender Barely acknowledging the pain Reminding me that fear is relative And one day we all must die So why worry about the inevitable A life is better lived without the fear of what will be A mind wide open curiosity in over abundance This is who I am This is the life I have been given Mistakes there's been many Regrets only one I have finally forgiven myself A feet I thought impossible such a short time ago But there is something I have rediscovered in this magical place surrounded by mountain As I sit here gazing at a lake that is an impossible color of blue Surrounded by wildflowers so many different colors You feel as if your walking through some artists favorite painting My breath catches and a single thought escapes Life is beautiful
