Walking with introspect in mind.
I challenge my life one step at a time.
Each day grows, new lessons learned
No time for the old man, just the new I yearn.
What makes me who I am only few really know.
Hidden in those tiny dark places is a light waiting to grow.
Getting inside is the secret to the quest.
Many have tried, success only by the best.
They never stole my spirit or my soul.
Each one in their own way has made me whole.
As I look back and then forward again.
Nothing much has changed outside or in.
We are what we make ourselves and we learn to be content.
People only see us on the outside and pass their judgment.
Who we are on the outside speaks volumes of what is on the inside.
Do we live two different lives? Does one rise up and the other subside?
I can only judge myself and my own thoughts and deeds.
I can only be who I am and what others may need.
Such is my lot in life. One I quickly embrace.
For knowing me as me, I find no shame, no disgrace.
For growing old in wisdom and happiness is my goal.
Mending fences once again and making things whole.
Giving time and space for me to be me brings peace and harmony.
Walk with me if you will and joy and love is what you'll see.
I walk with myself to see things in different lights.
Hurts still hurt and wrongs are never rights.
But it hurts no more and the wrongs I made right.
Will you walk with me and share my light.
