It's one of those mornings…

Mount Pleasant - NC

It was early when I first opened my eyes 

Dreams in my mind 

Screaming inside 

Its one of those mornings 

Upon my awakening, 

I concentrate to make sense of what reality I am in 

Maybe the dreams in my mind 

Are memories of another reality or another time 

In mornings like this 

As I move from under the covers 

I feel the crispness in the air

Its almost fall, and everything is starting to change 

As I make my run to the bathroom 

To pee and be free 

I peek out of the window 

The sun hasn’t risen yet 

Foggy are the hills around me 

I should go photograph 

Instead, the feeling of writing strikes inside 

After all its one of those mornings

Its inevitable not to hear 

The artist without fear 

In mornings like this 

A kiss on the green 

And I feel the bliss 

In the notes of my phone 

I find home 

Words are starting to arrive 

A dance is soon to begin

When I type the first feelings 

Words seemed to know how to arrange themselves 

And just like that, the silent music plays

Laying back in bed

I rest in my old ways

And I think 

“…This is the journey of the soul, it's the adventure of me

No matter what I'm told, I know that I am free

To roam my own way, to flow in my own sea

To chase my own dreams on this adventure of me…”

The chorus of the song “adventure of me” by Rob Riccardo plays out loud inside my ears 

Certainly to be conscious and present 

Its a must 

Unknown is the future 

But in the decisions of today 

I trust 

Hopes dont ever die 

Actions bring them to life 

Lost, I feel sometimes 

I don’t-knows and other excuses 

It’s laughable how much we think we know 

About it all 

When we are just in search of our own truth 

Happiness is the key to a forever youth 

The warmth of my soul mate 

Calls me closer 

The crispness still in the air

The sun has risen now 

And I am at rest 

Letting these words confess 

I’m the creator of my own stress 

It is in mornings like these 

That I feel relieved 

Everything about morning like these 

Makes me feel reborn 

Another day full of possibilities 

And here after these words came out 

I feel freedom 

I feel compassion 

I feel justice 

I feel true to myself 

I feel that even if I still may be lost 

I am comfortable knowing that I will find the way 

Its one of those mornings,

and I am ready for another day!
