Just being

Be smarter
More humble
More aware
less affected
and more grateful

The list grows larger
as the infractions queue

Head down to the sunset
to what has come and always has been

Listen for the secrets
in silence
they are more beautiful than all of creation
for they were there when there was nothing

I may never grasp eternity
in this life
But then I would never be able to see
the elegance of whats before me
now, then and in the future

I was given an affliction
the longing
so that I could move forward
not so
I would stop and watch

If what is desired
is stationary
then it cannot be helped but be left behind

and to just be

But that doesn't stop me from watching
it
until she falls beyond
my horizon
