The breeze (sometimes we all lack direction)

See yourself through my eyes,
the mirror of your dreams,
all your mixed emotions
are seldom what they seem,
Take pleasure in your endings,
begin to live again,
for a moment can change all things,
nothing stays the same,
Grow for new tommorrows
live for your todays
be the self you feel you are,
confusions just a phase,
Dont consider your direction
let fate lift up your heart,
the breeze that blows you gently on
could turn, and tear apart
all that you have built upon,
all that you believe,
all those plans you bank upon,
all those thoughts concieved,
Build your hearts foundations
on granite not on sand,
take the strength I freely give,
I'm holding out my hand,
I ask nothing from you
but believe you need to give,
not to me, but to yourself,
so be yourself and live,
Are you an enigma,
a leaf blown in lifes storm,
float down gently in my hands,
I'll keep you safe and warm,
then when the storm is over
when the time is right,
a gentle breeze will pick you up
and float you from my sight,
but we will be much stronger,
for we have shared a storm,
and maybe in our futures
a breeze might blow you home.

Olias.

Danced butterflies in the wild
This angel, this woman ,
who loves me with the innocence of a child.

I think the breeze needs to lift this back up for a little while longer....

I'll have to agree with JLR... your words meant so much to me, I felt you must be talking to me. *S*

Who's to know just who we'll touch
When we pick up our pen...
A heart might loosen shackles
Be blown gently home again.

Well done... and thanks. *S*
