Balance

...it's not always black and white,
sometimes we do have to add a little color.
~
You can no sooner rush a chapter as erase one,
nor rewrite what was already written, but as
surely as the sun rises and the moon braces
for the night, we can alter the script and give
tomorrow a love that even time can't fight.
~
I am but a song that still waits to be sung,
and our love but a story of unwritten words
scripted from above.
I am but a spirit that grows stronger everyday,
and your love the energy that infuses along the way.
I have reached the clouds and danced both night
and day and anchored my feet to the earth
to listen what the dreams had to say.
~
One last breath... one shared moment, one last dream, one sweet kiss.
~
I dare to dream, to hold you close, to love you forever and never let go. The weave of rue a wreath makes to bring luck each and every day. Customary a florette to the hair a reminder of love and how much one cares.
~
Balance, where or how do you find it? When I looked back over my life, I found I had this habit of all or nothing, I gave it my all or I gave it nothing. I could not give a small amount of who I am to anything or anyone. I find that as I incorporate everything into one I still have a problem with myself. I think it was the picture from seven years ago that had me thinking. The picture represented only one aspect of who I am. The struggle is that the picture had no depth it was one side,one reflection, one part of my being. I must admit it was a very controlled and confident part of who I am. The years that would follow would come with a tremendous amount of struggles. I felt like I was straddling a horse and jumping the fence. Fence after fence and sometimes making it and sometimes not. The achievements have been many and I think to myself from where I stand how was it possible? But it was and it is possible to break barriers in away that teaches as we travel.
I looked inside myself and wondered exactly what it was that I needed to do to bring balance and allow my soul the experience which is necessary for survival. The more I thought about it, the more it felt like a vice squeezing my brain. It was the threads that I did not weave, loose and sometimes tangled that caused the struggle. How do I untangled, trim and reweave so that it all appears to become the tapestry of life that my mind knows can exist? Standing at the crossroad in the journey, I knew I had to do what was right for myself and still consider everyone. Is it possible to achieve personally, financially and emotionally on stable ground? Not sure if I know that answer or that I am ready to know. It is almost as if my soul is pacing, responsibility starts with self and branches out and not the other way around.

~
Hold my hand and don't let go,
it's never easy on the rock road.
We've taken the mountain and
grain my grain exposed, the
beauty of love and it strength
as it grows.
~
Hold my hand and don't let go,
I don't have all the answers,
this you know. But I know I love
you and each moment is ours
till the journey of life expires.
~
As the curtain cracks open my choices are one, to master the moment and to embrace the sun. The day is here and there is much to do, but I'd rather be spending it all with you.

~
Balance, when your souls knows
what your heart is doing and agrees.
~
I need the euphoria while keeping my feet on the ground.

What do you see when you close your eyes?

Sings> Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I opened up mine. The warmth you'll feel is like a brush of warm summer air and it contains all my love for you.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I opened up mine. In the darkness you'll find the signature is my design as I left my name on your heart.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I I opened up mine. The beauty has its holds like memories of old and the dreams are always you and I.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I opened up mine. Spring time in winter, snowflakes in July, my soul shaken doesn't know the day or time.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I opened up mine. I feel you each morning and hold you every night and the kiss I give you is to last you for all time.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I opened up mine. Today I broke away from the hollow and its gray, I followed the sunshine and let it lead my soul to another day.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, lose your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart, as I opened up mine. The dreams surreal, know exactly how I feel, they cast you my love in the lead.

Close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes, close your eyes and open up your heart,as I opened up mine. The darkness settled in but your smile gave it a spin and like sunlight through my window you lit up my heart the day you walked on in.


~
I lay claim upon your soul, the merging has begun
and with each breath of moment I feel us united into one.

Time has already spoken, reality is here and you my
love have held my heart year after year.

My list is growing longer and longer every day,and
yet each word a little different, they all mean the same.

I want to share each moment, make you happy throughout
the day and love you forever in the most amazing way.
~

Inside smiles and outside laughter celebrate the day,
from the moment you took my hand and led my heart your way.

~
I want to run into your arms and at that
moment of embrace stop time.
~
Connected by the soul as seen by the heart.
~

There is something incredibly magical

about a love that knows no barriers.

~

The journey fell from hand to heart.

~

I can't run into your arms, I am already there.

~

We are...





When I was a kid the Beatles was on the list of forbidden music, actually there were many styles of music which we weren't allowed to listen to. As I matured I found a unique interest in the various groups. I found the Beatles music to be upbeat and with romantic and fun lyrics... all my loving, I give to you... all my loving, I promise to be true.

~
I felt the breath of an angel in song, sing to me, sing to me of love. The wind had spoken as it brushed against my face and left the touch to my heart a race. I saw the magic that simply endures, it created an image like none before. Your soul and my soul in a life long embrace, the dance of love from face to face. I heard the the whistling wren, she didn't migrate, she stays till the end. Her tune is memory endowed, a reminder of the love that took to the clouds.
~
Who am I? Where do I belong? What road do I take?
I am a spirit lost at sea desperately searching through memory. I am heart, I am soul in the arms of love in heavens fold. Long roads, short road, twist and turn, they lead over mountains and rivers wide, a journey through the mind. ~
~
"Are you watching the sunrise?" said the Angel ,
high up on the heavens looking down upon the shore;
as the blue sky sent the invitation from my heart
down to yours.
~
I am the moment and this moment is now ours,
for you have dared to love me and set my heart on fire.

John Lennon wrote and inspired many wise lyrics infused with music that touched your soul.
Balance is key, when we are whole we are balanced.
Great writing.
