Leaning into

The Unknown

By Steve RichardPublished 5 years ago 2 min read

Leaning into the unknown -

Leaning into the unknown .. Will you care to show .. What we have to grow ? Hold onto or own .. A ego trip on my lost cause dilemma..

Always bending to another’s show .. It’s never a act .. I’ve got to know .. Friend or foe..

Feeling dirty .. Always needy .. With our hearts we have to be greedy .. Stop .. Or jump into this opportunity .. Nothing ever good comes from the scraps off a wolves feeding .. Now who’s bleeding ?

Leaning into the unknown ..

Speeding .. Can you witness my process ? How does anyone maintain their mainframe? Only sick to the ones that see it .. Suffering .. Victims of their own games .. Do you care to explain ? Are we the same ? .. Driven insane ? No shame .. Broken hearts are never easy to explain .. I no longer recall my role .. Friend or foe ?

Leaning into the unknown ..

Who are you ? Who do you know? Can only fight off the ones that show .. Do you ever tell ? Aimless wandering .. In search of nobody’s gold .. Just someone to hold .. When does your heart tend to grow cold ? .. Are you feeling bold ?.. Friend or foe ?

Leaning into the unknown ..

If it’s easy is it good ? If it’s good is it easy ? Assessing it for what it’s worth .. Grounding myself on your earth .. Is everything going to do me dirty ? definitely has a taste .. Can you see it on my face? Long ago I fell from grace Skipping steps at a medium pace I’ve got to know are you a friend or are you my foe ? ..

Leaning towards our unknown .. In a world of who’s I’m so exhausted on why .. Standing in our middle feeding the flow .. Taking a ride to where it goes .. Unlearn control .. Seeking the wisdom of the universe to show me our view .. Do we adjust ? ..

Nobody knows a friend from a foe .. Until after the show .. Do tell me how to lean into what we know ..
