like a gust of wind,
free to wrap around the trunk of a tree
the top of a tree, mouth of a river
still existing, but able to drift away
invisible, inpenetratable, indestructable
able to change and alter
to know that you're felt, you're known, without actually being seen
like a lively fire,
dancing and causing shadows
bold and threatening if uncontained
free spirited, changing as you please
taking other's down with you as you grow, using them for your own gain
noticing this or not
destructive?
like a drop of rain
free falling, down to the unknown...
but not alone
going against the world, feeling the rush of life as you get closer to your destination
to end with a splat
landing and expanding,
growing and becoming a part of something bigger.
like a old, elm tree
sturdy and strong from a life of hardships
cracks, splinters and moss covering over the weak spots
but yet standing proud against it all
instead of cowering in pity, absorbing life
absorbing the sun, the light
appreciating what you have and what's to come
