After the dark.

After the Dark 
 
With the days first light,
All the worlds performers rise,
The greatest symphony begins anew.
With each added spark of life,
The vast orchestra gathers,
To deliver us all manner of wondrous sound.
 
As night would settle,
A whole different hymn fills the air,
Carried along by the wind.
The song of the world,
Continues to surge out to us.
 
from within this great congregation,
A lone brilliance rise higher.
Unknown to the world,
But known to myself.
 
The splendor of it all,
Exists to be shared amongst all.
Not for me to alone demand.
 
The majesty is in the world entire.
And yet I yearn for one song alone.
 
The steady rhythm of thy heart.

Horizons

Horizons
For Harleigh, Let's you and I make some waves.

Drifting along this ocean calm,
Unchanging seas are my horizon,
Tis quiet this simple life.

But something unfamiliar comes,
Not unseen for what it is,
Though clearly unknown to me.

This storm rises from the distance,
Far enough to be avoided with ease,
Fascination flows over me.

Venturing forward into the wild,
There is no retreat from this storm,
I would have it no other way.

Gale winds push and pull,
Challenging me anew,
This is but the begging of something greater.

My world is changing moment by moment,
Overflowing with its new breath of life,
Calm waters will no longer do.

Surge forward deeper into the mist,
Reaching for an intangible end,
But it's the journey to truly experience.
