capture

a moment
a photo
an early morning
breath laced with coffee
or an order of toast
only
read a blog
twice
be sleep deprived
sleep in
be the thing you most fear
and then conquer yourself

moments
photos
kisses
swing from blue trees
or green
or yellow
on a string
make a playlist
then give it away
write a blog
or five
be the thing you most admire
and admire yourself

the essence of life
and the grace in death
that we all possess
from the ultimate teachers
who first taught us
to run head first
into the world
and capture the air we breathe
we passionate determination
for we are FREE

the fear
the unknown
the loneliness
in your mind
in mine
beat it with a stick
let it be your punching bag
and your kindness
be the dichotomy
so that you may harness the lightening
bolt from the sky
and be the sole author.

Without tragedy. 

And with it.
