So See Me Walk

I sit in darkness… Empty space. My Eternity.
In bliss, I search; no time is felt…
Wait! Shimmering--far away… I witness:  Light.

And feel the distance in between us.  
I watch because you’re new. I watch because you move.
I begin to make my way toward you,

My… You have grown. Now nestled in the sky.
Casting light upon the world I’ve only stumbled through,
To realize sight and perceive the blight of never knowing that 
This was ever here,  
I stop to breathe… Captivated, by this environment.
In wait, I watch… As time unfurls…
Amazed by glistening streams…  I witness:  Life.

And contemplate my “place” amongst this all
I watch these things, so new. I watch as this world moves. I begin to lose myself in You, 
My… I have become distracted. Lost within what seems a dream.
Alien, so strange… To think we never  knew,
To comprehend light; to completely immerse myself in the unfamiliar.
And neglect the urge to be secure.
As I experience your wrath and glory…
My solace comes in waves for those who have also made the journey…
All search for: Light.

I now use knowledge to convey: Our Journey is the  “which?” -path   we take,
Should I find a place to lead? Or should I wander? We’d all be free.
But they seek the knowledge and the one  who knows it, 
My… To think, before the “snow” and “sand”, I knew only  darkness.

I envisioned chaos, but never dreamed I’d   wage influence,
To have the power that through words and gestures can you trade both ignorance and naivety for gratitude and a greater, more palpable understanding,
