Waiting for a connection.
Watching people go by,
A few looking quite frantic.
Ready to board their plane
And fly away.
Most staring straight ahead
One destination on their mind.
Always flying away.
They are all so distracted,
Staring at their phones
And tripping
Over nothing.
Dreaming of flying away.
And I wonder what
Tales the
Luggage carousel
Might tell.
I woke up screaming.
I woke up gasping for air.
I woke up reaching for you
But you’re no longer there.
I spend my days in walking nightmares,
My nights searching my dreams.
I try to tame the voices in my head
But all they do is scream.
In the world
In the universe
The moon
The sun
Every star
Every blade of grass
Every person
Through time
And experience.
Through darkness
Through bliss
Paths turning left
Paths turning right
Forks in the road.
Decisions
Exhaling
Inhaling
Looking back
Looking forward
Joy
Regret
Sleeping
Dreaming
Waking
Walking
Running
Crawling
Climbing
Soaring
And.
Here.
We.
Are.
All that you are,
Has always been.
Now it’s time
For you
To come alive
From within.
You who have
Been dreaming,
Sleeping to survive.
Arise
To greet life.
