civil twilight // letters from the sky

Human

There’s one way out and one way in

Back to the beginning

There’s one way back to home again

To where i feel forgiven

What is this i feel, why is it so real

What am i to say

It’s only love, it’s only pain

It’s only fear, that run through my veins

It’s all the things we can’t explain

That make us human

I am just an image of something so much greater

I am just a picture frame, I am not the painter

Where do i begin, can i shed this skin

What is this i feel within

It’s only love, it’s only pain

It’s only fear that runs through my veins

It’s all the things you can’t explain

That make us human

I could think of very few curses worse, than a curse that takes the lessons learned from the past and the present, and disallows one to carry them into the blurry future.

We would be nothing without the ability to learn and the desire to carry those precious lessons with us on our life’s journey, like rubies of indescribable value. To share them with others, to polish them and preserve them and strengthen their beauty under morning’s new light.

We would be shells of failure, ghosts of repetitive destruction.

Oh what a gift they truly are, oh what a gift it truly is.

What does a man do, to embrace the old as well as the new?

Both the present and the past, the raging doubt and the here-at-last?

How does he introduce his old self to his new?

Should they even meet, and if so, what should they do?

They could talk over their differences, and agree on a plan

to forge together the two pieces of this confused man?

Or do they fight to the death?! no words exchanged

until one is defeated, never to return again

This is the question that pulled me from my bed this morning

to look outside my window and see a new day dawning

and to realize, that before my eyes, a new world is forming

But for who?

the old me……. or the new?

happy new year
