Resolution

Memories can come from many heartfelt stories and past recollections
We protect them with all of our being, being that they are ours to share with the world
...or for us to embrace alone...
I feel prone to the latter as my heart has climbed stories on ladders of glories unknown while I have touched the sky and felt immaculate.
I've peered down to see the fallen earth falling down even farther from way up high...
I'll take a minute to rest on this daydreams pedestal
...and I will stand still on this narrow ledge between thoughts and reality.
My past and future staring back at me through the sunlight's glare...
So I lean my head back...close my eyes...and feel the presence of an immense figure.
I feel the weight of a thousand days lifted off my weakened limbs
I'm just glad to feel anything...I am glad that I can smile during a harsh time
So I smile and close my eyes tighter and bring with it, a tear...
One drop...drops down and stimulates the clouds beneath me, the rain falls a thousand heartaches and scatters them below...
An umbrella might do some good, but I doubt it...you should bask in its entirety and wait it out..
The Storm hits hard but it discards rainbows and oceans...it brings life with it after the pain is washed away.
It can recycle the earth and clear the dirt for colors to emerge...
I can recycle my thoughts as the rain takes them as well
I can show you what its like to be perched above this rain and see life's blood for what it truly is.
I can, I can...I know I can but what is there to gain?
It's narrow where I stand, there's plenty of room down below, on the land...with everybody else.
Maybe that's why ill just stay up here forever, this is where I grew up....
Where I spend my days and nights...beyond reality, even beyond dreams...
