I still

I lost my mind when I listened to the words of some songs. So much so that the emotions pour down through me. I shake in this trembling cry as the night falls to morning. If only there was a way to tell what is on my mind.

The words ripple thoroughly in the air, time sings. And I whisper my hope into your eyes. I dance in the soaring sky and I play a soft melody in the moonlight. Oh how I hoped that the way I am would be explained in the wind.

And as the day brings itself to light, I sigh another breath. Holding down the questions I have and the actions I command. Oh if you only knew the reasons. And yet I still find myself withdrawn to any other conclusion of life. I just keep holding myself up.

Knowing that life could be bitter and cold. Though I do not see it that way. I find the bumps in the road, welcoming because they show me just how humble I should be. Carrying away all the silly girlish notions of everlasting love between to imperfect people.

I have come a long way to note the changes that all of us go through. I have even seen the drastic reverse some have made to recognize one person. And with that I still hope for my moment. Perhaps many would call that childish but the dreamer in me remains positive. Clinging to the hope. I don't ever want to loose hope.

So sure one does give me reasons to keep going and others show me how to halt. And as I see the rocks turn to pebbles I realize that the mountains are not so overpowering anymore. The view from the valley is just as beautiful as the highest peak.

And yes I still dance in the soaring sky. I still play a soft melody in the moonlight. Whether anyone is listening, that is up to them. If they care to speak, by all means be vocal.  I will not stop any echoes or whispers. Nor will gusts be halted before stone.

I still listen. I still cry. I still love. And if you want to be a part of me, you have to be these too. For I still trust. And I still live. Standing here breathing in gasps only because one word could either damage or heal. Which will you be, eh?
