Where we belong

All around me are familiar faces

taking time out from the races,

worn out, young and vibrant faces.

I find it rather uplifting,

I find it rather strange,

for just today

there will be no tomorrow,

only moments that wait patiently

to be cherished for an eternity to come.

All these happy faces in a sanctuary called home,

our very own castle in the sky.

I love being here.

Merry Christmas!

Against the tide

Amidst the danger
lurking in whirlpools and swirling currents,
there is endless possibility.

Yet you choose to follow and stay close.

Allow the world to swim beneath you.
Break away.

And grab that something you have been afraid to want.
