Smart

We are always afraid of loosing our mind?
But how about loosing our heart?
Why would we get so dependent on people’s opinion
And feel safe and accepted only when they say we are good and smart?
Really, have you found the treasure you hold?
Are you ready to share it or still analyze what you’ll be told?
Does the fear of failior still grabs you in its iron hugs,
Each time you are about to jump… to make that step…
You are stopped by the voice saying “All is nuts!”?
Bet it tells you “the moment is lost”
 every time you’ve got the itching to spread your wings,
Bet you keep on listening, you still believe his words
 words of that ghost…
I know all that as we are one not only in light…
Every one has that “dark”… hidden side…
But what if we have the courage to look at it…
Yes, it’s frightening…. Scaring…
What if we embrace those feelings and continue…
Continue! Please!
As there, in darkness we may find all the seeds.
They’ve been waiting for our care…
 for so long!
Lets water them with tears…
 lets not be ashamed…
They are words and music for our song…
We’ve been searching….
 .for so long!
Let’s take time… just give them time!
Be patient and wait.
 It may seem hard
 …it may
But then…one day
We’ll get amazed at the sprouts they give –
They’ll express Love and Beauty in every leaf!
What’s then?
Then you fly and you crush! You succeed and you fail!
You’ve got all of ups and downs of life…though
They no longer appear to be a jail!
Now you never loose your heart!
You let it blossom and flourish,
 your unique and precious bud!
….and that’s what really makes you smart.
