SOMETIMES WHEN I SEE THINGS
THE PICTURE IS NOT SO CLEAR
AND I STRUGGLE TO BRING IT INTO VIEW.
SOMETIMES WHEN I SEE THINGS
THE PICTURE IS TOO CLEAR
AND I STRUGGLE WITH WHAT I SEE
AND WITH WHAT TO DO.
THE PICTURE IS ALWAYS THERE
THOUGH,
FLOATING IN MY MIND,
WITH SCENES OF PRESENT, PAST,
AND THINGS I DON'T
YET KNOW.
THESE PICTURES, SCENES
TAKE UP ROOM IN MY HEART
FILLING IT WAY PAST FULL.
AND AS IT OVERFLOWS
INTO MY SOUL,
I DEAL WITH THE EMOTIONS
THEY BRING.
I KNOW AHEAD OF TIME THE WAY I CHOOSE
IS NOT ALWAYS THE RIGHT WAY,
BUT THE WAY THAT'S RIGHT FOR ME.
AS I TRY TO GATHER THE PICTURES
TOGETHER TO HELP THEM MAKE SENSE,
I AM ALLOWED TO RELIVE SOME MOMENTS
IN MY LIFE THAT ARE A PART OF ME
ALWAYS.
I GET TO DREAM OF SITUATIONS THAT CAN
COME TO PASS IF I SO CHOOSE.
AND YET SOMETIMES
I GET CONFUSED, TIRED, UNSURE
OF WHAT I MUST DO.
AND THERE IS MY PICTURE,
THERE TO HELP ME THROUGH.
THERE TO TEACH ME LESSONS FORGOTTEN
LONG AGO.
