Through their Eyes

Do you ever wonder

if all we know

is all there is?

Do you ever ask yourself

if you’re missing out

on something else?

Are we truly alone..

or are we being watched?

Are footsteps following us,

or are our thoughts not ours at all?

What if there’s something

beyond this world..

beings aware of us,

watching everything we do?

Do you think they wonder

what we’re doing with our lives?

Do you think they pity us;

seeing how we live?

Waging wars.

Killing children.

Oppressing. Tormenting.

Polluting, warming,

destructing, depleting.

Do you wonder

why they fear

showing themselves to us?

Maybe we should see ourselves

from a different view:

a little farther away,

a little more honest.

Then maybe we’ll see

who we really are:

beastly, inconsiderate,

lacking compassion,

lacking love.

So look in the mirror.

See yourself.

And ask:

when you leave this world,

what do you wish

to leave behind?

Awakening.

Lost myself, somewhere along the way..
Don't know how, don't know why.
When did you touch my soul; when did you look beyond?

Amidst all the chaos, I stand still
Unmoving, unfaltering,  unwithering.
Under all the supervision
And all the noisy chattering

It drives me crazy, makes me burn
From deep within the depths of my soul.
Yet I show it not on the outside
I will stay strong, I will not hide.

My ink dries up, my words disappearing
My mind goes blank, as I stand here shivering.
I wonder what its come down to..
The story of my life and the reason for this struggling

Pages are turning and chapters ending
But I push through them all, unrelenting
Lost in the madness of this addictive craze
I lose sight of my surroundings,  of Your protective gaze

Why should I rush, or hurry it up?
Wht should I even think, of giving it up?
I stand for truth, I stand for love.
I stand for God, in heaven above.

I slip back to reality,  make a fall
But the landing unexpectedly isn't hard at all
I feel the comfort in the arms of God
I'm not alone, and so I'll stand tall.

Forgive me my lord, for my moment of doubt
Forgive me, for my unnecessary thoughts.

I drift back to sleep, this time in peace.
Touched by a mysterious warm kiss, in the gentle of the breeze.
