My account

Slowly I’m discovering what this is all about
Slowly as I move with care
Slowly so that I do not loose even one glimpse of what there is
I’d like to see it all
I don’t want surprises
They can be nasty at times on this kind of trip
Trip you will many a time when you look not where you step
I’ve fallen one too many times before
Still I look where step but still I want to see what is around me
Why all this need?
An absence I thought was there actually prompted it
‘Thought’ as I’ve actually discovered that I don’t need it
It’s already there
Always has been
Problem is I wanted to replace it with someone else’s
Compliment is the word
How I got there I guess it was for me to learn and appreciate life more
So as I go down this road I look around and savour all there is
How I taste it all is up to me
My account is what matters
So slowly I move along this road
Come along if you may
I don’t need the company but there’s room for many
As long as you don’t mind, I’ll keep you company
But don’t expect much from me
This is for my account.
