The Life We Don'T Remember

A condensed gravity fills all that we’ve grown to become From those aqueous worlds we’ve all had to succumb New beings moulded by the delicate hand of mother nature We complete her lottery of life for an unknown adventure We were orphaned by the womb – to become stars A far displacement from the destiny of who we truly are All the lies and truths told to us as we learned to walk erect We believe because it’s how the world needed us to act As the noise from the outside grows louder against our courage We start to ignore our internal dialogue of accumulated knowledge And we lose it to the darkness of fear and hate we’re born into The wisdom we’ll perhaps only rediscover at forty 09-07-2015
