Tracing Thoughts
Trace not your thought’s within the past,
not tasting what is forever gone,
wasting the mind from looking forward,
pleasing no one in the present,
wrong is gone and you must go on,
Leaving perfection to the perfect,
time will never catch up to you,
but it will waste away through you,
each moment is missed by dreaming,
take the real and give it reality,
for the real is true but it’s up to you,
stories from the past use in the present,
not dwelling upon your emotions.
clasp unto love and hold it,
see the sights and enjoy them,
hear the music playing and dance to it,
Smell the fragrance of life with wonder,
touch the sky and float on a cloud,
taste the flavors the world has created,
Live life while you are still alive.
