they wish they could blend in with a crowd
get lost in the sea of nothingness
while others wish they weren't
hoping to spread their message
like a bird in a forest singing to be found
one might say a great spot to be is between these realms
teetering between pride and humility
where there are no risks of falling only soaring
where pride lives
Where pride lives there's a strong air around
Where pride lives there is great stride
Where pride lives there is a river of sand
It is cold and dark
It has a simple yet dangerous beauty
It could cut you if you weren't careful
Yet be dull and weak if you cared too much
Where pride lives there a glimmer of hope and yet the storm may never end
timber
The forest is quiet ,peaceful, serene
The forest is big and vast
One is to seldom notice when but one tree falls
Even if it creaks and groans and comes down with a loud crash
No one but the other trees as witness of this passing
The animals stirred softly when they felt the vibrations mostly unfazed by the world around them
If more trees would fall maybe that would make the difference
Maybe then would it have make an impact
No one can really say what went on that night you just had to be there
