Jericho

There are many times I wish I would have said something and I never did.

About your strength, your courage or how you let things be.

Maybe all three.

But instead I sat there quite in the night.

While the wind took hold of you and carried you out of sight.

These are the things I think about often.

The way you began to feel like you couldn't soften.

Your mind, your soul, your heart around me.

Always trying to be what we wanted you to be.

But as I look back on the years I see

you were doing exactly what you needed to be free.

as we let this cycle come to an end with joy.

I realize I was never just a toy

a light, a guide. a friend, not quite

a companion on the souls darkest night.

Stepping into the night on this Hallows Eve

Let's remeber why we dress up the way we do

To hide, transform our original sight

From the ones the intrude

Keeping our true selves hiddem

From the spirits that emerge this night

With the veil being very thin right now

Allows us to look closely and see

That many of the spirits that come to visit

Are much like you and me

Some are wandering free

While others are still waiting to be

With that being said

Be careful what you become tonight

Because some spirits will be attracted to what they see

breathe in, breathe out

And without a doubt

Pull in the essence of life

Pull out the stagnation like a knife

From the beginning to the end

Intention will help you bend

How you see, feel and respond

To everything that's created a bond

To every piece and part of you

Deep down you know the things you hold onto

Those things you dont need to

This is somwthing we all do

Like a sponge you absorb the masses

And as life passes

You become hardened, stiffened and sick

And just a few points would do the trick

As you release, clear and let go

Of all the things that can literally kill

Not just your body, your mind and heart too

Most people don't have a clue

That there is quite a easy fix

All you have to do is trust those little sticks
