We can
Lina Ru
We can
I can see you with clarity,
after cleansing myself
of me,
these empty racks,
waiting for me
to shred the past,
waiting for me
to let go,
so we can fly with
the breath of today
to create circles
that regenerate.
But
vultures are waiting,
enjoying my teardrops,
their heart is fed
from my salt,
slavery of the soul,
the flavor of wanting
to let go
that never comes,
salty,
unless vultures are freed
from the need of my tears,
so our flight can begin
without fears.
We can!
We can fly after painting
the beige skies
with sunburst eyes
where we'll dive into,
flying,
flying,
let us be in peace.
We can!
But you can take me
into your arms only
if
your your breath becomes
the wind of love, you.
We can encounter death,
after realizing peace
is
not a treaty, but
the consequence
of truth.
We can,
just don't forget me
as you paint with the wind;
we paint with our breath
the world paints
the reality of love;
as we love,
as the world loves
as we let go
and
fly free.
If you are hoping and working for a better world, don’t give up! When the world’s troubles seem too much, there is always an oasis inside your heart. If you don’t want to see the rainbow after the storm, perhaps you can, if you love. You could start with those who are kind and accept your love. Cry, if you need to, and by doing so, you might become stronger. Fly, and by doing so, use your love as the wind. Live, and by doing so, paint in the skies with the shooting stars of liberty. Just love.
