I love it when a friend can help me dissect my own work...after going over this piece a million times and finally just sitting down and dissecting it with the fabulous Ms. Sasha Brown, this poem revealed more about myself than I could imagine, almost like it was preparing me for a season I was entering into...LOVE THOSE MOMENTS!!! Enjoy :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ENTRAPPED IN AN INSATIABLE MOMENT
CARE TO JOIN ME
LET'S TOAST TO NEVER BEING FREE AGAIN
REFLECT ON WHAT LIFE WAS LIKE
WHEN WE HAD THE POWER TO CHOOSE
AND WHERE THAT LEFT US
SO EXTEND YOUR ARM TO THE FUTURE
NOW DRINK UP
AND MAKE SURE YOU GRAB YOUR EXTRA SET OF CHAINS
THIS IS GOING TO BE AN EXPERIENCE
NOW RELEASE
FEEL THAT
THAT PULL BETWEEN TRUSTING
BUT NOT KNOWING
AND ACTING OUT IN NONCHALANCE
SIMPLY NOT CARING
HOW DOES THAT FEEL
TAKE NOT BACK THIS MOMENT
AND DARE NOT TO RELIVE IT
WHY
BECAUSE THE PAST IS STARTING TO SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD
AND I'M IN SEARCH OF A NEW MELODY
SO HARMONIOUS
THAT AN EXPLANATION WOULD SERVE AS A SIGN OF DISRESPECT
SO LET'S MAKE IT
YES
YOU AND I
JUST LIKE WE PLANNED YESTERDAY
THE TIME IS NOW
RIGHT NOW
IS ANXIETY SEEPING THROUGH YOUR VEINS
TROUBLE NOT YOUR HEART
THERE IS NOTHING TO FEAR
I PROMISE
CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO LOVE YOU
LIKE THE UNIVERSE HAS BEEN RECREATED
HERE
HOLD TIGHT OF MY HAND
WE CAN RUN INTO THIS TOGETHER
AND WHEN WE FINALLY ARRIVE
WE CAN SETTLE OURSELVES AT THE EDGE OF THE MOON
I WILL SERENADE YOU INTO A DREAM-LIKE REALITY
AND WHEN YOU HAVE ARRIVED
THERE I WILL MEET YOU
HOW DOES THAT SOUND
WE WILL PAST THE TIME
IN EACH OTHERS ARMS
AND SLEEP ON A HAMMOCK OF MUSIC NOTES
FEELING OUR HEARTBEATS ON ONE ACCORD
NOW HOW DOES THAT FEEL
NICE RIGHT
SO ARE YOU UP FOR THE CHALLENGE
MY LOVE
