Start

Everything surrounds me.
And I'm glad for that time.
That time, drifting like raging waters
On my mind.
Start with a charged energy,
I tell myself,
While in the hypnotic movement
Of days I find myself.
Giving, believing, and reciprocating
The omniscient course of nature.
So don't be alarmed by new channels,
You were given your own life.
To breathe your truth.
To shout your strife.
The time is now.
So give it your all.

An interesting, introspective piece. A fine poem, and the last two lines give an extra punch.
