Time Is Ticking

~Time Ticking~

Dream of a vision that 
can tap into your worst 
days 
to deprive you from 
feeling vulnerable.
 Save your life 
to not hurt yourself 
listen to
The ticking clock
A handle that reminds 
you
Of the time 
passing. 

I had a dream so real 
A man of ninety years 
Sitting under a tree
In his own kingdom
Penned me his wisdom.
           Ticking.
Happiness is not 
a matter of chance 
its a matter of choice
A soul can live 
that beautiful
        Dream 
Flourishing 
Awareness 
To wake up 
a shorter life 
than 
yesterday.

Changes that occur 
are results of the
Passing time
Embark as a start 
to watch a daylight
    Heal your 
bleeding wounds
If existing. 

If you don't fly with 
strong accomplishment
Your personality
  Will be stuck
In what you know 
unable to discover 
what you don't know.
Search for
The moon when round 
harvest a light to shine
  Help you
Perform moment
To moment.

A dream in a vision 
that wakes up with you 
to move forward
Will grow in your depth 
to become present 
in time.
To live every day 
in the same pattern
Is giving up on change
 And the living moments 
are shorter. 

This is the moment 
to  be strong 
seize that instance
Set yourself loose 
even sense your sadness 
walk to wait 
for the midnight hour
 Count your stars
 Talk to them 
tell them to be here
 Tomorrow
When you come 
back.
                                   
A dream in a vision
That can enlighten
The root of 
unconsciousness 
 lighten up 
your soul to
 Touch the sky 
no need 
to predict 
the unpredictable.
 Leave your damages 
behind to advance 
your addictions
With a full term 
memory 
to implant that illusion
In your depth to
Breath life. 

Create choices to 
 identify your
Image in the darkness
Silence is your pride
 Change is your goal
 Respect 
is what you are 
looking for.
 That is
 What makes 
You 
so special.
