Potential

safety is a relative term.
what you make of being small
can be anything.

standing in the clouds
makes you realize a thing or two.
they’re not high up after all;
they’re not unreachable;
instead, they are at your fingertips
as long as you choose
to keep them
off the pedestal.

achieving serenity is hard.
making something look effortless
takes more effort
than anything else in the world.

don’t make yourself unwilling.
never close a door
that could have led you
to reaching your full potential.

please,
please,
never giver yourself over to Regret.
you’re too precious.

so who knows?
when you awake in the morning
you just might be able to fly.
send me a postcard
from the clouds.

i’ll visit you sometime,
but i can’t go with you.
it’s not for me.
but you,
you’ve been Living there all along.
