Not knowing is the worst
Unable to feel that energy flow
That holds you so tight
As if never to be let go
I am accused of manipulating minds
Maybe because I enjoy a rhyme
My thoughts are out as an open book
Nothing to hide, no agenda is a foot
My goal is to be better, reflecting on all I do
Not saying I know it all, just mostly of me
That I don't use words like idiot or stupid
Knowing that positive thoughts feed the mind more energy
Through every day I learn to play
Teaching new patterns in my finger tips
The violins vibration soothes my ear drum
Guitars strings help the stomach breathe
With all this I let go of how others make me feel
But when all else fails
I sit down in verse
Go through my thoughts
Good or bad they cannot be ignored
I ask for the wisdom to not hold on
So I can stand my ground without letting go
This is me, I've never let go yet
I know how to bend my knees
My light can never be taken from me
Now more than ever I'm proud to keep walking
Every moment leading to the freedom from within
Understanding that the freedom is not free
The price I pay with my never-ending tear
