September 2013 – Soulful Storytellers LLC

If I take your words in pieces

I create the story I want to tell

That of rainbows, sunshine and happy times

That of you being all mine

But a fool I shall not be

No piece meal of words to match the piece meal of ‘love’

The tokens you chose to throw to get where you want to go

I hear the full story, line by line

I see those things you think you can hide

Like my heart is not cold my eyes are not blind

I know we do not share the ties that bind

Your colorful lyrics and momentary gestures do not mean a lifetime together

They are just meant to get me to do whatever

This game we can no longer play for with you I will not stay

For while you gave me pieces I found my whole

One who loves me truly from the core of his soul

“When that defining moment comes it will be unlike any other. It will validate all the no’s for now you have the ultimate YES!”

I am that wildflower that grew from that single crack in the concrete

Taking advantage of the light that shone thru absorbing the morning dew

I am that wildflower that grew from the crack in the concrete seeking opportunity setting myself free

I am that wildflower that grew from the crack in the concrete climbing the backs and standing on the shoulders of great leaders who started thru a pinhole.

That crack is no longer! It is an open field, boundless for many more

The wildflowers from the cracks in the concrete happily fill gardens everywhere

Flourishing beyond expectations of many who thought we were nothing but useless weeds and crab grass

Seeds randomly dropped, expected to die yet grow colorful and bright with no end in sight.

We do not die when our petals have wilted and dried

For within those petals are more seeds waiting their time

To add to a world that is yours, ours, mine …
