The Land

I’m warm
I feel safe in a spot I never want to break free from,
I see nothing just how I want it,
Then something a snap,
Something new,
What is this?
I see everything it’s bright,
The sun is hurts my eyes
But it’s smiling.

I take a step there is land
I can hear water,
Something lightly touches me,
I look back I see wings,
I touch them and I can feel it,
A shiver runs past me.
I can move them,
They are blue.

I hear a whisper calling,
I look around but nothing
Only the purple sky,
So clear I can smell fresh air,
It fills me up as I take my very first breath,
Then a voice again,
‘They call this life’
I look around still no one in sight
Where is this voice coming from?
Could it be my very own Mother?
‘I am you!’ it tells me ‘Inside of you, you can call me your mind.’
So I have a mind this mind it knows me,
It holds all of my answers,
I think, I can think.

‘Fly’
The mind tells me,
‘Learn and don’t keep your brain clear, just try.’
That’s all my mind tells me but I can do it,
Before I know it I’m with the purple sky it smells so great,
Just like flowers,
I feel the earth moving,
A panic I’m stoned dead, I can’t move I am falling.

‘Don’t worry you were made for this.’
I was made for what... then the world in front of me
Cracks open, darkness seeks in,
I am wide eyed shocked,
Then the world falls into pieces,
There is no more smell
There is neither sun nor a moon,
My heat beats faster, water drops from my eyes what is this?
‘You are feeling fear’
Then the world falls back to one all so fast
The sun is smiling again the flowers and smelling,
And I feel normal.

‘That was your sign.’
For what? I can not answer this,
My mind is gone again
I just fly,
Then in my sight comes a think grey cloud,
I get closer
I see
It’s just the dust,
As I get closer
I see a war inside of the dust.

I stop and a single tear falls from my face,
My whole insides drop
I can not move I can not think
I can only look, I am confused.
‘No you are hurt.’
Why?
‘You must answer this yourself.’
I stay in the air consumed,
Then a tick, I know why I hurt
Because they are fighting,
I fly fast down to the ground,
I yell
They all look at me,
I am crying now,
But they look away
They must destroy everything,
Tress are falling,
Water is drying,
Birds no longer sing,
‘This is what you are born for.’
I scream
Then the world seemed to stop
But I can not.

My chest open’s
A light explodes from me
I am again scared,
‘This is what you need to do.’
I scream with all the power in me
The dust is no longer,
The war has stopped,
And I am blind again,
Back to a world with out any memory,
But I know everything is at peace once again,
Now I know I am the peace keeper
Now I can sleep
As the tress grow
And the sun shines,
The birds sing again,
The water flows,
And the flowers dance in the wondering wind of silence,
As I sleep in peace,
As the stone that shall never break, never bleed just cry,
In time of pain, hurt and war,
This land I have, shall be owned by every living thing that it shall grow.
