I stand all alone Amidst dappled shade A forest unknown A solitary glade The wind sighs softly And tells secrets dark It whispers by me In unseen arcs It brings wild abandon To my quiet mind Here I am standin’ Released by mankind Shedding mortality To run with the wind What is morality? When beasts are your kin Vibrant life all around Uncorrupted by fear Innocence hate never bound Found, only in here In my solitude Peace finally comes My freedom pursued That journey is done I stand still again The silence is broken By beautiful rain Cleansing sins unspoken It’s gentle and pure Like the heart of a child Kind gift of nature To a heart that was wild Drops roll down my cheek Like tears from above Leaving clear streaks Shining white as a dove The beast that is man Can, by healing, be tamed My wounds closed as I ran I’m no longer ashamed My head turns to face The path I came down Where I left my disgrace Where healing was found I turn to run home Soulless no more Unlike mighty Rome I will live evermore My hate surrendered Anger, behind The fight has not ended I’m still part of mankind But the journey’s changed It’s no longer futile My life’s been exchanged Someone else ran the mile The tears from the sky Fell from the sun Pearls of light falling by As healing begun Their value - far more Than mankind could see I was imprisoned before Now I’m set free |

Welcome to Pip! Your healing rain looks like a beautiful walk into the light. It's all part of our evolution process and of recognizing that we are never really lost. Moments of darkness too are teaching us important lessons of life. Love, Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |
