Discover the Wisdom of Tiger Hawk: A Journey Through Words

Evolution

For our souls to move upward,
We must evolve.
Many won’t understand,
They’ll perceive change in a negative way.
They will miss the old you.

Watch you spiral,
Reject you,
Leave you to hang yourself with the rope you’ve weaved,
Of your own misbegotten choices,
Your soul will be cleaved.

Many will disappear as you ascend,
To a new plane of existence,
To them it will not appear.
The mud will grow arms,
One’s decision must be made without fear.

Will one lunge to the root of an isolated tree?
Pull yourself from the morass,
Or sink into the putrid pit of suffering.
There is no one else to save you,
No one to set you free.

The longer you wait,
The more entrenched you will be.
The harder it is to move,
Terrible patterns you’ll see.

Everyone loves a car wreck,
Many drive past, hoping a body,
Or three.

We want carnage,
Blood,
Fire,
Twisted metal.

The glint, the gleam,
Their eyes narrow to black beads.

You will be abandoned,
Or they will worry,
Tell one needs help.
Decided to help your self?
Now you are perceived the same way.

We decided to climb,
Took hold of that life giving root.
Freed from quicksand,
Now we must climb that tree.

To see the lay of the land.
There must be some way out.

Look up,
Sometimes you must let go.
Never saw the struggle,
Only saw the effect.

The cause,
The rampages,
Making everyone upset.

The end of your old self,
The skin becomes dried.
A new one arrives.
Once one truly lets go,
The old self must die.

Those things that nearly brought you under.
All of them, we had the key.
A lock we could always access.

Though we misplaced it,
We nearly forgot to be.

Forgiveness,
Understanding,
Unconditional love,
Patience,
Gratitude,
Positivity.

You will alight like a feather,
Along the breeze.
You will perceive your self and all others,
To bring joyous deeds.

Instead of losing oneself within a maelstrom.
Of chaos,
Engineered societal guillotines.

We get to watch from the outskirts,
Us leaders,
We get to be lean.

Lifters of the veil,
We all have a duty,
Our missions must be clean.

The struggles endured made us ready,
Your true purpose is assured.
Living in moments,
Forward is the only way now.
Looking back will ruin your peace.

Negative thoughts will drag you from the sky,
Back to the mud,
To repeat.

Look for the signs,
The synchronicity.
Find them in others,
But most come from somewhere down deep.

Stay committed to evolving,
Keep your pace at top speed.

Remove the darkness,
The light will not recede.
Transcend,
Or be doomed to repeat.
