Movement
swiftly moving in every direction
as open as the universe
moving faster than the speed of light
my mind finds peace among the stars
Never alone
drifting through space
that others believe empty of life
instead full of thriving thoughts
They were Wrong
Every is a part of all
as much as nothing is a part of all
They say you can't have
light without the dark
Peace without the storm
heaven without hell
Twisting and dancing
waltzing
life finds paths for thoughts
death finds space for memories
never gone
never alone
just follow the whispers that
seep through the cracks
in your mind
Entertain the Dance
Close your eyes
Feel the whispers of your soul
Feel the touch of others
wisping around you
some as gentle as the notes of a lullaby
yet as powerful and moving as the
rage of a storm
dance with grace and beauty
yet with enough passion to inspire
even though you may not try
your movement evinces emotion
we touch so much more than
what we see to be tangible
our lives our thoughts our spirits
are the pebbles in the pond
sending ripples through nothing
and everything
some may say that to find your destiny
will help shape your choices
but I would say the discovery of ones inner powers
shapes your choices
and destiny is only
what you make of it
always changing
close your eyes
feel the shadows shifting around you
a gentle curiosity in their touch
no intrusion on your mind
breathe deep
feel the earth below you
feel the air around you
feel the spark of life within you
it is only when
the passing of shadows
the welcome
the essence of our person never diminishes
though some of us self destruct
though we all lose our bodies
the essence of our being remains
divine me an answer
I want to move with grace
the storm rages
and I want to move with grace
I want to walk and dance the pattern
and move with grace
I want an inner light
to Radiate
And I don't want to be scared of
shadows that spawn from the storm
As quickly as I know I'm moving
I also know I'm not
Movement is so much more
than a change of position
movement is more than we see
movement is the pattern
the shift of notes in a song
the shift of thoughts in our minds
movement is shift of each moment
the past the present the future
movement is always
movement isn't ever never
for even in never
even in nothing
there is always potential
there is always movement
