SOMETHING FROM NOTHING
When you come from and have nothing you start to believe that is all you deserve when the moment arises that you begin to receive everything you asked for do you practice greed by asking for more?
It does not have to be materialistic love or something that arrived from the earth. can we be happy with what was sent to us without any fuss?
I have always been a working man earning everything I put inside of my hand. Yet your love my love our love I do not yet understand. What did I do to deserve you?
No longer do I feel the need to bleed while running up the hill with the desire to fight for a life that many years ago I should have left behind I guess you can say neither one of us was in the right state of mind
Now here we both sit laughing and telling the story of how this fairy tale of something from nothing started
