We must remember.
We crawled up from sea,
After the wreckage of battles once born.
We’ve been sailing ships at broken heart harbor,
Boarding runaway trains down lonely night tracks.
We are not accustom to these revolution prairies,
Even though we were born natives and pioneers of pain.
New arrivals to the unknown,
We are restlessly searching for the light halos
On the horizons of today.
Carrying pages of the past,
They are still dripping from the journey.
We move onward towards tomorrow.
Creating a wind to dry them
For the readings of the future.
We must tell these stories.
We are made for this.

to try & remember was good for me once
but in the end i forced it where it would never go, yet now that i've spent nearly all
& saved just a drop, your hope & grace
gives me the try, thank you for that eloquent sail... somewhere near and

This speaks on so many levels. To build a better future we must learn from our pasts. The history of mankind is being written everyday,while we all live in our own personal boubles of reality. We forget that it's all connected...We are all connected.We must learn from one another.
