The terrace

I have never meant
to see this
or the way
it would be

You know
the reason
is you

I know
the reason
is you

But
why won't we
say it

Why don't
we see beyond
what we want
to see

Where are we
going to go
from here
if we don't know
where we are

The great wide open
is waiting
but
we don't think
it is there

Because
we are looking
for it
through
a key hole

And the key
lies in
the truth
that
we shy from

The truth
that is hidden
behind
these words

Where
do we
go
from here

the uncertain is scary like hell and yes we see only what we choose to. or as you say, we look through a key hole. great!

The keyhole is as narrow or wide as we make it. Wise, as always. Words are your way, as they are mine. Sometimes they fit to unlock the door of blindness, sometimes they keep us stuck where we are.

Where we go from here is a question that remains in all of us...Its more scary is not being prepared for where we are going...

Its been awhile but as always I love being here

Hope to hear from you soon

Hey Buddy!
Good to see u back! Remember that last scene in Finding Nemo when the fishes in the tank escape and roll over into ocean across the bridge and asks "What Now ?"

Somehow once u break the door and see the whole picture, i get a feeling, you might be asking the same question. Life's too boring without the keyhole view.
