I wish for you happiness
I wish for you light
I wish for your love
Through others to shine bright
I hope you find comfort
In the dark parts of your brain
For even the light
Can drive us insane
I pray for your health
Your well being- your bones
May they hold you up high
Keep you steady on your toes
I feel for your achings
Your joys and your laughter
May you find someone or something
That will make your happily ever after
This is my plea
Don't settle for less
For looking around
Is not always the best
Believe in yourself
Activate your awareness
Know your own truth
Act accordingly- not mindless
Through your trials and sorrows
Through your changes and burns
I will stand right behind you
Polishing your urn
For my investment is long term
I am the Angel of Death
I'm not here to control you
Just take away your breath
So while you're still panting
Still scurrying around
Take a moment to breathe
Take a moment
Take a moment
To inhale
Then exhale your weight
The load you carry on your back
That makes you complain
That makes you slack
Then deeper than ever
Breathe in
then
Breathe out
For I'm waiting for you
Patiently
More patiently than ever
For your vessel to wear down
And when what's important
Has left your bedside
Here I am waiting
In me you'll confide
I'll hear your regrets
What you should have said
What you should have done
And I'll tell you, "I told you."
And you'll tell me I'm wrong
You'll say times have changed
Blame the way society became
You had to run the race
It was they who put you to shame
I've heard it before
I'll hear it again
I'm sure the excuses
Will never end
It was time
Time was wasted
It was they
Not you who tasted?
The wine from the chalice
The one sparkling with wonder
Filled with a delicious poison
A treacherous blunder
One many fall into
So don't feel too special
It's not surprising
You would have too
Turned your back on the Earth
Uprooted your roots
Stopped looking at the stars just
Tended to your loots
Here we are
Just you and
Just me
Breathing in lightly
Breathing in deep
Converse with your shadows
I'll converse with your light
Together we'll journey
We'll make things just right
I wish for you light
I wish for your love
Through others to shine bright
I hope you find comfort
In the dark parts of your brain
For even the light
Can drive us insane
I pray for your health
Your well being- your bones
May they hold you up high
Keep you steady on your toes
I feel for your achings
Your joys and your laughter
May you find someone or something
That will make your happily ever after
