As through 
A dense forest
Reevaluating

I cannot catch 
How the hours vanish
Powder puff dreams
Crumble into dust
Scattered by a gust of wind
There it was
Life
And now
It’s nearly gone

Beyond Suffering...
exists freedom for troubled souls
a mythical world of enchanting beauty
giving comfort to broken spirits forlorn.

Beyond Suffering ...

fighting good fights with daring deeds,
all splashed across the silver screen,
and yet I’m lacking in true grit,
in truth I love...

Lightly lifting my soul, deeply reaching my heart
Sailing with the notes of many things left...

Life turns on a dime; a never stop, roller coaster.

The ups and downs, twists and turns; a dizzying feast of adventures.
