My mind is blank.

Thoughts fight for my attention,

But I ignore them.

For this is my time.

My 10 minutes.

That's all I need.

Ten-Nine-Eight-Seven-Six-Five-

As the time passes,

I breathe.

In.

Out.

In.

Out.

I focus on nothing.

The nothingness surrounds me.

I repeat "agape"

I breathe through it.

"Ah-gah-pay"

I center myself.

Focusing on the vastness

that engulfs me.

Only when you lose yourself

Can you find your center.

Meditation shields the thoughts

And focuses the mind and body.

Four-Three-

Just breathe.

Our time is almost done.

But now, I'm ready to face the world.

For I am centered.

Two.

One.

Waldo hides in a sea of people.

He's camouflaged among the faces.

Waldo is no different than you and I.

He's invisible.

Indistinguishable.

Lost.

Maybe he isn't hiding.

Maybe he is trying to disappear.

Did anyone ever bother to ask?

Does Waldo want to be found?

I am living my life for me,

And not for me at all.

My thoughts are communicated,

But hardly do I speak.

My life is full of emptiness,

Yet I feel completely full.

I am at perfect peace,

And still I am restless.

Love traps me,

And love sets me free.

The Alpha

The Omega

The Lion

The Lamb

My life:

Not mine at all.

My purpose isn't clear

My writing is vague

My voice I fear

Is kind of naive

My tone is more of a lament

My integrity is gone

So now my friends

It's time we move on

It's time to revise!

You think you can make it?!

You'll never get there.

Success is too much for you.

The bar is too high.

You're asking for the moon.

Realize your abilities.

Be content where you are.

There is nothing more for you Above the bar.

You mustn't venture out too far;

You might discover

Who you really are.

Daddy wasn't being a dad.

Eyes looked towards me.

Innocent

Scared

Lost

Eyes.

My feet stepped up.

Filled the void.

Love is my mom

Slowly rubbing my back

When I am sad or sick.

Love is the song she sings.

Love is soft and airy-

Like her voice.

"Swing Low."

"Sweet Chariot."

"Coming for to carry me home."

Love is warm and comforting.

Love never fades

Even though

Sometimes

people

do.

Who do YOU want me to be?

I'll live as you wish me to be.

I have be everything to everybody.

What do you need of me?

If I'm being honest,

I'm scared.

I'm scared of failure.

I'm scared of missed opportunities.

I'm scared I won't make it.

I'm scared I'll prove them right.

But,

I am strong.

I know I can do this.

If I'm being honest...

I'll be just fine!
