As we explore

As we explore as we explore.
We want to find our selves,
we find out on our journey that we are. We are.

On my journey I fell and my knees started to bleed.
I was wearing a skirt, my knees were bare thats why they started to bleed.
I looked at the blood that was starting to dry on the pavement.
I looked up and saw you standing there in front of me wanting more from me.
I saw invisible tears that barely touched the ground.

It would have been much easier if I had not seen so much truth,
and it was harder because you keep making me do more than possible, but every time it seems that it is possible.

I stand up, knowing that my existence is way to short,
to long,
to unimportant and important to do nothing.

I grew up with no expectations from my surroundings,
lots of possibilities, and I was fresh.
Decided to sail the world, but the waves could not keep up with me,
I came to land and settled and had lots of fun.
I gained power, power that I was forced to abuse,
mother earth called me back down to earth.
I walked the streets homeless and the wind held my hand every night,
took me places I had never been,

I saw happiness jump down from a two story building,
I saw patience skip the line,
I saw truth deceive an honest person,
I saw virtue commit a sin.
I decided to be fair on my eyes, they were swelling from crying to much, could not stand anymore.

I went where the grass was greener, but the grass stained my pants and people would start looking at me funny.
I built myself up,
I became the tallest and most steadiest building in the world,
but my old friend the wind did not like me anymore
he created a tornado and I fell to the ground.
I picked up the pieces recreated myself into a beautiful person.

I made a pact with you as I saw you standing there staring at me.
I watched myself say goodbye to a way of life that I thought I had designed for myself.
Out of destruction we build.
I could see disappointment in your eyes,
you did not help me up,
your eyes forced me up because I am forever trying to prove myself to you.
I realised that you had been watching me since I was born.
I could never hide from you; you were too strong for me.

We sat down together and the words we exchanged to each other became the pact I would hold forever.
I promised to take your hand and never let go,
you promised me that if I did this you would forever be true to me.
Since then my heart has been with me everywhere.

The more I cry, the more I cry
the more I learn the more I learn,
the more I try the more I try.
