Between Breaths


I look out at my domain
seeing rhythm as well as confusion,
I can look inward and
see the same.

Landscape in any form is changeable
so am I. Its only that in which
we fight to change  
then continue on the fight that
makes us move forward.

It was a fight to take your first breath
it will be the same at death,
so anything in between
must be fought for at different points
in order for advancement.

You are not alone in your battles
even if those around you appear to be
at peace with themselves,
they just at the moment do not look
weary from their own trials.

Each battle won is a step towards
an inner rhythmic peace
that will help guide us through our
journey, giving stability
to a wearied soul.


The battles won if treasured will
become our strong hold
empowering us to breathe a
calm rhythmic beat
inward as we enjoy they outwardly
beauty of life.


By, Cerenity

Cerenity, this is great sweetie...
I'm keeping this poem as a pick-me-upper when those rainy days of frowns come popping by as this will surely remind me to open my eyes and see the rays of sun just beyond...
Thank you for this marvelous read...

A nice reminder that we all have troubles, but people to share the burden with as well.
