Journey Inside
Gazing through the looking glass;
I see that time has stood still.
I was yours and you were mine;
Thoughts sadly cross through.
I now turn the hourglass;
Reality Strikes!
Letting my heart know the
reasons we are apart.
Images replace the misery;
Smiling ,
I see that the memories,
I vividly see ,
Will never leave me.
Walking to the tree of life,
I inhale deeply the air we still share.
Sitting down under the shade;
never wishing the memories to fade.
I look into the clouds,
each one different and unique.
I see you in each and everyone of them.
I stand up and walk slowly through the paths of my life,
Growing with each tiny step.
My mind reminisces back to a time,
Where it was so hard just to survive.
My spirit has awakened to this knowledge;
Withpn every old memory I have built a sacred collage.
I can now see just how far I have journeyed.
My soul relaxes as I now know you will be proud of me.
I start to smile again;
For,
I have longed for your approval for quite awhile.
My mind can now close that chapter of my past;
To let my spirit be free at last.
