New Plateau
Reaching for more with every beat of the heart our final destination from the start, and
where we are now is far, far apart.
Mentally striding from the start we try to physically hide but can not.
New heights attained with every tick of the clock, looking for more there is no time to stop.
Attaining goals set on our wall, vision unbinding tensions ever winding.
Experience alone is not sufficient common instinctual knowledge will make one efficient.
Rising above all pilled on the heap intelligence irrelevant taking all in a sweep.
Standing tall on a new plateau obvious to all except the ones who know.
Maturity in knowing that the heart and mind is ever growing constant changes in life are ever
flowing.
Silent and poised totally oblivious to the noise accomplishing goals set in our stone rising up
to sit on our throne alone.
The plateau you create is home…
