for we are so much more . . .

for we are so much more . . .

i laughed, i cried

i lived, i died

so many times over

every time i realize that i am awake

i get up the courage to go for

the actualization of a better place

that we all have always dreamed of

and what better space should it reside

but in our hearts bathed with our love

i embrace this journey of discovery

so empowering is each step

i am encouraged to joyously saunter

for our joy filled work is not done yet

in the embracing of our perceptions

at times we limit our moments in being

as we acquiesce to the finiteness

and the temporal aspects of seeing

yes we are in truth so much, much more

than what we hold on to and believe

our minds and thought are beyond the universal

there fore we have the power to conceive

for our potential always stands above

that which our lives have humbly tested

‘tis the grandeur of eternity and the infinite

upon which our souls have been vested

so i in all due humility beseech you and my self

that we let go of boundaries, fences and such

let thy definitions evolve as does our lives

let not thy illusion become thy crutch

for we are so much more . . .
