Everyone Could.

The tide rages,
Turning and twisting.
Beautiful pitter patter.
Tears seem to come from the sky.
Cutting into humid temperatures.
When drops come,
but not just from your brow.
It seems everything is crying.
Deep within the soul.
The only courage is to be nature.
So pure and wise.
Wipe those crying eyes.
It lights a fire deep like thunder,
when every inch of your skin crawls.
Such revolt this world is feeling.
When there is too much fight,
not enough healing.
May the greats & unruly,
Sleep with no rest,
Until our hearts can be relaxed.
Like a baby in the deepest slumber,
When you sip on the finest wine,
Eat a memorable meal,
Had the best cheese,
Found a great love,
Took in a deep kiss,
Had a door open for you,
Heard the rain,
Felt the river move,
Been alone,
Went barefoot in the woods.
Theres something that knew you couldn't enjoy it,
Unless everyone could.
Otherwise where's the love in it?

No-one Told Me So.

Oh the directions life takes you in. The turns, the changes. I can see why some never change, while they almost remain the same. Once you go in to it its hard coming back or ever being the same. Friends you knew, you don't anymore. No-one ever tells you what growing up is actually like. I wish someone told me to keep certain traits that possibly dissolve with age. That in to your 30's, you start to change. You see the world differently. The child you once spoke to isn't listening anymore. As you sooner approach death theres a shedding happening inside. No-one tells you that. Its the point in which most try to find some value in their job or get married because they feel like thats something. I don't think thats enough. At the end of it all we all are trying to find some kind of meaning. Its a limited time here, I just hope Im not giving up on that and settling for something so predictable.

I wish someone had told me.
