Unfolding



Every single minute, I'm calling out
Every little moment I hold dear, I'm holding in
Capturing in a silver stream just waiting

Every dream that finds its way to consciousness, I'm waking up
Every nightmare that keeps me chained, I'm unlocking here
Unwilling to allow a winter chill in this summer breeze

Every time my heart cries out just to be heard, I'm listening
Every source of pleasure, pain, joy, and grief, I'm embracing
Allowing to overflow and carry me down this path

Every drop of love shall not fall into the well of regrets, I'm promising
Every glass will be filled and kept safe, I'm trusting
Believing in something far beyond me

Every sunrise finds its way into the sunset only to rise again, ever evolving
Every darkness that tries to engulf me, I'm fighting
Every flash of brilliance coursing through the sky, I'm seizing
Every single minute, every single day, I'm walking
Watching, wondering, and waiting
For every aspect of my life to match the sun that's already risen in my heart
Surfacing and shimmering, just waiting to fully shine.
