"Own Your Time"

Time will always do what it does best

Move forward...

But you have to let it

Release your steady grip upon the hour glass

Stop counting the lost moments

And all the minutes that have already passed

Be the change that you want to see

Let it take root deeply within you

Feed it

Let it grow

Pick the sweet and tender blossoms

Because measurements of time in life never add up

Its either too long

Too short

Or never enough

So its your choice

Choose...

Take a chance

Win or lose

Be it

Live it

Own it

And never give any of it back.

"Where I'm Found"

Slowly, my thoughts drift with the clouds above

A calming peace has found me

Moments slip from one to the next without much notice

My minds eye has random images of times past, present, and several things that have yet to be

My heart beat marches me forward

Step by step I make my own life

Building everything from something

A life worth living

A being I am truly proud of

Because I am not ashamed of who I am

Happiness has finally found my heart

My soul has found its wings

And I've learned how to fly...

Friendship embraces me

Convictions hold me

And most importantly...

I believe.
