Somebody

I want to be somebody
Somebody with connections
Somebody with friends
Somebody with it all

I want to be everybody
In a small way
Maybe that smile
Maybe somebody with that spark

Somebody wants to be me
Somebody wants to be them
Somebody wants to live
Somebody wants to die

Somebody is reading this
Somebody is not
Somebody hates this
Somebody loves this

We want to be somebody
We want connections
We want friends
We want it all

Separate

I am not separate
An apple is the sun
I am the apple
I am the sun

My eyes are me
They are connected
Connected to you
Connected to me

The rivers flow through me
The trees support me
The sun guides me
Seventy percent of me is the sea

I am not separate
I am not me
I am everything
And everything is me

Dream Time

Chasing after time
One leg up two legs down
Somewhere in the middle
Let’s spin another riddle
Let’s see how that goes

Never enough
Simply never enough
How about that town
Should we stop in the middle?

Chase that dream
Whittle that statue
Paint the Mona Lisa
Master the sonata

Where did the time go?
Where did the money blow?
Whose time is it anyway?

Majestic

Wizards & Warriors fight with perfection
They raise their swords of recollection
Their soul stones pulse purple with power
Winter breezes from the mage’s tower

The lion with his cub
His mane so proud
His wicked claws at the ready

Blue waves with majestic strength
Leave the Earth
Swirl with intense birth
They give us life

The piercing winds
Shooting through the moon
Ripping the world asunder
It’s awesome strength

...

Meaning

I watch the water flow over
The torrent of rain pushing ahead
The picture of life
Captured

How long?
When will we see it?
When will we embrace it?
This life

Do we see us?
In the light
In the dark
Reflected

Will our stories make us?
Will they break us?
Will we endure?
Endure for eternity

Meaning is our center
If we are honest
In our world

Jesus
Gandhi
Mother Theresa
Martin Luther
