The strumming of a guitar causes my leg to strum to it’s beat. There is nothing else it wants to do. I can not stop it from moving. Why? What makes us move? What moves us? What drowns everything else in the vicinity?
I have always listened to the beat of shadow and light.
I am drawn to the darkness of the shadows. Why? Well because it was a place where I could let go. In those caves I can be free. This was a place where I could be led away “into the light and to the day.”
I just never knew that where the days were leading to, I would be called out in heartache.
So I work on this. Everyday, I work towards this…feeling hurt & letting it go. To break away for a peaceful land. It can be done, can’t it?
There is more to aspire to, isn’t there? There, where the air is better to hold your soul aloft…
