LINES OF THOUGHT © 2013
Do not wish to be more than life,
Nor try to fly beyond the sky,
For you will be a shadow, lost,
In the wind that time forgot to sigh.
Life has its own rhythm,
A tempo that the heart should heed,
And those who try to take a larger step,
Will find themselves never to succeed.
Embrace the simplicity of days,
The gentle glow of every moment,
For those who seek empty grand displays,
Lose themselves in the shadows of time’s torment.
Be, then, like the flower that blooms,
Unhurried, at the right hour, without pain,
And in the lightness that being consumes,
You will find the path of love’s refrain.
