Zen no Zen

I am 

right here 

right now 

doing this 

which is nothing

I Need

I loved you so much I forgot I existed

I need room to exhale
I need room to stretch out my arms and legs
I want to walk with long strides
Pull my shoulders back and beauty see you out of the corner of my eye as I walk on by

I need room to smile
I need room to laugh and cry
I want to run fast so I'm breathing hard and sweating and dripping off the tip of my nose

I need room to stand still
I need room to think to myself
I need room to love myself
I need room to be myself
I need room to see myself
I need room to hear myself
I need room to speak to myself
I need all of these things and pieces to make all of me

Good Friday

Its 4:00pm on Good Friday 

don't worry is Good Friday 

the only man who didn't worry was crucified 

for all my sins, your sins 

he came back again 

he said I paid the price for all sins 

he left again 

we still sin 

he'll be back again 

should you worry 

it's Good Friday
