Out on the Road Again

Its genuine

 

We’re all on our own path

To find happiness

 

Converging and crossing

Maybe talking sometimes

And staying for a while in the presence of others

 

We enjoy the company

For a long time

Or for just a little

And we get anxious

Because the roads undiscovered beckon for our eager footsteps

 

Its hard to leave them behind

But we push and we pull

One wants to go

And one wants to stay

To see the flowers grow

Hand in hand

A visit becomes rotten after a while,

And we yearn to find something fresh and new

 

Every now and then

We turn our heads

To see if our friends are still rustling in the bushes

Hoping, yearning and

yet dreading the sight of them

Following you, maybe to say, 'lets take a walk together'

One last time

To catch up or to say goodbye

Or to sew up old wounds

 

Some of us walk together

In sight of eachother

But in different directions

Our eye can see as far as it wants

And it becomes blind to what has pained it...

But just until it is ready to accept the most tender of sights

 

A path walked alone

Can be unbearable at times

But of course, we learn to hear the quiet

And love the sound of our own thoughts

Love the feeling of our own decisions

Everytime we stop to take a drink, we might learn to love our reflection more and more

We learn to appreciate our companions on the road behind us and ahead of us and beside us

 

Some lovers may join us

Many times lovers will leave us

Leave us torn and forlorn

Hopeless and yearning for more

They leave us with scars

They leave us with sadness and anger. With tears to fill the oceans

They leave us with questions and rants of rage

The most painful choices are sometimes the best ones

 

But they leave us with hope and with our dignity

And we learn slowly and we find clarity

And with knowledge

At these times, when we seem to bleed to no end

In the unyielding darkness

We find the best in ourselves

The strength in ourselves

And the determination and will power

 

These lost lovers, they leave us with graciousness in our hearts

To accept the choices they made together

And when all rage fades away, we say ‘baby, it’s okay’

Because we had to go on our own paths

Remove ourselves from the past

Living and learning

We say; darling, ‘ill always have a soft spot for you, for your lips, for your kisses’

I will always smile at our silly fights and our silly memories. At the good times.

Theres good in everything

Even if it feels terrible inside.

Eventually the anger subsides, and that glow, it shines brighter again. And we fill ourselves with love.

At the end of the day, the love is all that I will accept

Only to reject the anger and reject hate

For it is my worst enemy

All I have and all I want is love in my heart

I will pour all that I have

Even if it only fills the glass halfway                                 

 

And love in my heart is all I have

Love will lead me to happiness

To give and to share unconditionally

 

There is always a new path to discover, the path that we continue on

Because we are always looking for happiness. We find new friends, new foes, new laughter and new woes

 

Some friends will stay

until our dying days

And some friends will blow away with the wind

 

Some will take their last breaths

As we cry for them to stay

and some will always be there

as we share our last days

 

There is aa glow in our hearts

It dims

And brightens

But there is a glow in our heart always

We feed it with love and with laughter

We feed it with hugs and with kisses

We feed it with songs and with our dreams discovered

We feed it with work and with play and with pain, and with its gain

 

Permanence does not exist on these paths

The wind is always blowing

And it always rains

Washing away our footprints

And washing away our names
