WE

We lived many times, like days and nights, the time continued on. 
We lived in many places, we bloomed like the flowers and trees, we grew and achieved. 
We drank from springs, we laughed, we cried, we sang, we moved like the light bright, then dark, marking our marks. 
We lived in love, we lived in him, we lived with all he created and we learned from our sins. 
We let the storms carry away the ugly, the damaged, the deceivers, and all the ones that caused us damage. 
We lived many times, we journeyed through time looking at all the stars, smiling at the moon with its shine. 
We walked up higher in the clouds and tried to get a look at heavens high. 
We dreamed each seasons, and worked toward marking this journey better each time. 
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
