SEEN IT ALL



I thought I had seen it all until my number was called. Oh, how colorful and bright were all the lights that I saw? The faces that I saw were those of family and lost love. For a moment, I returned home to the only place I felt I belonged, yet the song played like it always does, saying you have not earned your wings. You still have a job to do. We are sending you back to get the keys to your throne that you were promised the day you were born.

Paint a picture, draw a map, and take another nap for tonight. You ride to find the mystery that in you hides deep inside the ship is sailing, and you have more fight left, so dear child, take a deep breath and sail away take with you the message of the words you heard us say
