youβre willing to bet
You believed in me when I didnβt
You nudged me along when I was stuck
I donβt think thatβs just luck
Youβre the spirit in that duck
And the life force to natureβs creation
Youβre the largest eternal nation
And a piece of you has rested in me
It wasnβt until with open eyes I began to see
You challenged me for a reason
And loved me through every season
Just as I planted a seed in your soil
Our connection will never spoil
Like an everlasting love coil
Together we shine
And remind each other we are the divine
I see you in every sign
And feel you in our forever bloodline
Caught in this universal net
From the day we met
To the day this life is set
Youβre willing to bet
Ace
youβre probably right
Life is short, youβre probably right
Life is more than this lifetime, youβre probably right
Your destiny is in your hands, youβre probably right
Your dreams only remain dreams, youβre probably right
You are a fragment, youβre probably right
You are the infinite Universe, youβre probably right
Love is all there is, youβre probably right
This reality is just an illusion, youβre probably right
I am your mindβs eye, youβre probably right
I am who I choose to be, youβre probably right
Because whatever you believe, youβre probably right
Ace
youβre in my head every night, every night
Memories and flashes
Fire and ashes
Reality crashes
This horizon clashes
The light and the dark
Battle for who makes their mark
The night wins this race
And itβs the dream I canβt wait to face
I lay my head to rest
Thoughts swirl about todayβs part in my quest
I feel blessed
Upon this universal test
There are days I ace
There are days I rely on my foundational base
But every day, I have this pillow and bed
Awaiting my head
And a story I havenβt read
I enter the dream dimension
My realityβs extension
I feel my higher self seeking my attention
Letting me ride this ascension
This cycle repeats
Each time I embrace these warm sheets
The Universe and I have many little visits or meets
Beyond sight
Through light
Quite bright
Youβre in my head every night, every night
Ace

I wouldn’t dare to pick a favorite for all of them are such profound beautiful. Yet if I were to put a finger feeling on one, I pick the first one, it just captivated me with its rhythm. I loved the second because it felt familiar and it flowed so well from the first and then into the third. Amazing job Ace!!!
