sometimes giving is receiving

 
 
don't know what is going  
to happen to tomorrow  
 
don't know if I will be  
here  
 
don't know if you will be  
here  
 
don't know if anything will  
be here  
 
but I do know it's not to  
late to gain knowledge  
.  
become new  
 
stop letting our past hold  
us back  
 
and step out into a different  
light  
 
spoke to an old friend  
this afternoon  
 
when we parted I said,  
 
"I love you."  
 
and my friend said,  
 
"why I love you, too."  
 
and there it was...  
 
like do many aspects  
of our lives we over  
think, over complicate,  
over analyze the moment  
 
when really, it's all very
simple  
 
so cut through all the  
bullshit  
 
step out into the light  
 
and let change engulf  
you like the wings of  
the Phoenix  
 
love can be the only quality  
we can give away that  
fills us up even  
with more of  
itself
