Alongside the Beaten Path
I found you sitting and waiting, predicting the worlds end. The words you spoke were devastating, meant to tear me limb from limb. You claimed that soon we'd all be but ashes in the wind, no more than tiny specks of dust to be discarded in the end.
These words they echoed through forest and mountain range. They went through the vast oceans and across the great plains. I stood awhile to let your predictions settle in, then turned and walked away whistling as I went.
"Wait you fool!!" you called as you jumped to your feet as if to give chase. I turned and waited patiently and stared you right in the face. Not one more word did escape those crimson red lips and not one move did your muscles even make. You stood there as if frozen, mimicking the stones which surrounded you.
My reply may have shocked you, or took you off your guard but my response was honest and earnest and holds true to this very day.
"I appreciate your omens and apocalyptic warnings though your concerns seem less than honest for I know your twisted ways. In my times of woe and ruin you loved to drag me down, deeper and deeper until I would almost drown."
I took a deep breath and continued on by saying:
"Every word you uttered where daggers, knives and swords and all the while I was drowning you just pushed and pushed and pushed. As I sank further down you kicked and clawed and tore all to get deeper into me, heart and mind and soul. Let these be my final words and make sure you hear me good because no matter what does happen from now on I'll keep living right through until the end!!"
So what's done is done forever for it cannot be replaced and the past is all forgiven for I'm still alive today. My mistakes have been my own, I'm so thankful for each and every one for I know they've led me here to this very day.
I walk ever onward knowing I'm always safe for I've taken a piece of heaven with me on this day. I've been blessed by many angels but none as fair as she, for in my every waking moment she drifts above the ground. Graceful without knowing it and more radiant than anything these eyes have seen.
As during the day she follows me to sleep, elegant and beautiful, more so than any flower that has ever been seen. A smile that holds the brightness of a million exploding stars and in each eye a universe just waiting to be found. Laughter soft as cotton or the down of baby birds, smooth as crystal she speaks to me melting away the world.
On and on could I still go of the softness of her skin. For with just one touch she has melted me from within. I know not why we did meet but I know that I've been blessed with her friendship if that is all I shall receive.
It is because of my beautiful place that I'm so thankful every day, I've now taken a piece of it with me in every possible way. Each summer I am reminded of the love that we all share, but this one, unlike any other, has been the most fair.
Along the beaten path I've nearly fallen many times but you truly caught me off guard when you caught me just before I hit the rocks which are scattered across the ground. Through all this I know I need to rely on more than what this world has to offer for He is omnipresent and I am truly never alone. So as I end this tale and let forever be, I'm just sitting here thinking of only thee.
Fin...Perhaps.
