A Better Time

The darkness seeps in, So slowly it is hardly noticed.
Fathers and Sons, Mothers and Daughters, Sisters and Brothers, Neighbors, Stangers.
Engaged in battle over life’s trivials.
So many living on their soul’s reserves, just to make it through the day.
Unable to tend to themselves let alone reach out to those who need it.
I consider myself to be a good man with a good heart.
I have reached out to some and offered what I have to them……but,
I myself have stood silently in the shadows and have done nothing, said nothing.
Wishing for A Better Time.
Today I will be silent no longer.
I will unleash all that is in my heart and release the spirit pent up too long.
I have choosen my path and will follow it relentlessly, no matter what.
There are two things that I must do now.
I must stay strong enough to live the way I want to. The way I know is right.
I must also reach out to others so that they can find the way back to their own paths.
Some will not hear me.
For those that do, It is not enough to listen and hear.
It is time to take action.
First for yourself and those you hold dear.
Then for the others that have been beaten off their paths.
These paths will cross, And when they do I will meet you there.
In A Better Time.
