In my eyes, skies are still warm
In my heart, breaths are still surviving
I search for meaning of all existence,
as I draw lines in my mind.
So many doors of emptiness surround
me as time scatters, but even the eye
has an exit.
I fall asleep on my pillow of pain
and hope to awake on a wing
and a prayer.
A fullness then gathers inside me, and
I now feel anything
but ordinary.
I watch love nestle
in every crevice of my being,
I watch the stars
pour their light into my veins.
That something extraordinary is without form,
boundless and forceful.
A gentle whisper
A ferocious cry,
all at once.
The sun sets behind the ocean of my dream,
and rises over the sky of my vision.
The wind blows
through every thought in my collection.
The trees and the flowers cradle my heart,
while the mountains nudge me to grow.
Iβm in this infinite flow,
or maybe
I am this infinite flow.
And I now feel anything
but ordinary.
Ace + Diana
It was so magical to work with the amazing Diana on this piece! Sheβs always inspired me and I feel very lucky to call her a dear friend! Dianaβs lovely instagram reels also inspired this video!
I hope this piece reminds you that you are anything but ordinary!!
