I Stop For More
Things Change
Each day happens right before my eyes
Do I see it or am I blind to all its splendor
Am I searching for a world that doesn't exist ?
Trying to put unreasonable expectations and strict rules
On my life that is nothing but a crap shoot
Throwing up the dice and watching them land
Having no control of the actual outcome even though I threw the dice
All my wishing and praying doesn't make a difference
Well I will take that thought and keep it in my mind
At the same time I will learn to change like the wind
Blowing in any direction I see fit
I will learn to accept the differences I experience with new understanding
Looking deeper into their meaning
As I cannot control my day or neither would I want to
I will continue going in directions that will fill my physical and emotional needs
Enjoying not only the good times but the situations that give me a less desireable outcome
Only to be enriched with new vitality and an honest perspective
I am here to live for the experience
Not to live and shy away from what I see as a disappointment or setback
To welcome my life in any shape and form
Trying to apply simple techniques that will heighten all the good
Deal with the bad and keep an open mind for the world in between
As a firepit burns in the night
Sometimes with a blazing unforgiving heat
Soon It can be warm and comforting
Lighting up the darkness with a special romantic mood
That soon something so primal and fierce
Has turned my attention to a deep passion of my desire
Seeing my wife in the red dazzling flickering flames
How my life has changed
Only for the better
As we watch the fire burn out
We turn up the heat and go inside to complete
Something we have started and haven't finished
A world of unlimited possibilities
Many promises to keep
A love so deep
That only inspires and never deminishes who I am or who I may become
Helping my wife also find her true self
Giving to each other more than before
Keeping our individualism
So we may both learn and grow to become more
