Something More
For the downhearted
It’s that little voice that tells you
Not to skip to the next song
Allowing you to hear
A life changing lyric.
It’s that feeling you get
Walking in the moonlight
That makes you feel that
Time has stopped around you.
It’s the butterflies that fight to
Escape from your stomach
When you meet someone
Who’s heart beats with yours.
It’s in the birth of a child that
Makes you begin
To understand.
Everything.
It’s in the death of an innocent
That makes you wonder
If there
Is a purpose.
It’s in the ring of a melody
That you find clarity
In the disorganization
Of your soul.
It’s in the wind that dances through
The leaves of the trees
That let’s you know that the spirits of nature
Are only children.
It’s in the comfort of a memory
That you realize
That everything
Is connected.
It’s the blackness of night
That makes you acknowledge
That you are as insignificant
As a twinkling star.
It’s the echo
Of a footstep
That gives birth
To adventure.
It’s in a sickness that
You realize
That nothing
Lasts forever.
It’s in the spark
Of imagination
That creativity
Is born.
It’s in an act of forgiveness
That makes you wonder
When it was
That you gained wisdom.
It’s in an act of anger that
You understand
The responsibilities of
Being human.
It’s in those little beams of sunlight
That shine through the clouds
That make you feel
Like you’re not alone.
It’s in a moment of silence that
You understand that
Some things just are
Without being.
