morpheus stone

morpheus stone...


continuing on our path...

i sit in this moment, 
moments so clear,
thoughts are drifting, 
waiting for you to come near. 

we plan and plan, our lives away,
we're told it's so easy, 
be careful, they say.

our lives are etched in a morpheus stone.  
the days, they are planned, 
but to us, it's unknown. 

the path on which we traverse, 
it's bumpy, 
it's rough. 
full of surprises,
full of "tough stuff". 

it's what makes us stronger, 
through weak moments we see, 
that our lives cannot be predicted,
we cannot foresee.

the plans,
 they are laid. 
before our arrival, 
lessons,
 we learn, 
it's part of our survival. 

holding on. 
over here.
trusting life's path.
living with hope. 
following the path. 

that's full steam ahead, 
sails up, sails down.
paddling slow, into the ground.
 a few steps back,
a few turn arounds,
after our crashes, 
we get back up from being down.

the days, 
they move forward.
sun rises and sets. 
our moments are lived, 
until the next.
