Because You Are Alive

Because You Are Alive

by Bud Lemire on June 5, 2006

Travel ahead to a distant place

Where all is complete within one space

Travel behind to a distant past

Where time moves slow, and time moves fast

Where is this place, you ask of me

It's not a place, but where you'll be

When you're fully aware, and complete as one

You become one with the air, and embrace the sun

You drift in time, up and down

Back and forth, and all around

Wherever you go, or wish to be

Is a thought away, from your destiny

This place is now, this place is here

When all is seen, when all is clear

When eyes can't see, and minds don't roam

The place within, is the place called home

The search for a place, is found within

The way to get there, is by experiencing

By taking life's journey, you will arrive

At the destination, Because You Are Alive
