Connecting

Life is a constant flow of individuals

Floating in and out of our lives

Some fall deep into our every day

Seeing us through thedarkness

Nudging us along as we face challenges

Holding our hand and laughing with us

Others stay only for a brief moment in time

Flying in right when we seem to need to them

They dig deep into our heart

And we are never the same

Even after they float away

The mark they left on us reminds us of their beauty

It does not matter how long an individual was in your life

What matters is the connection that you shared when you were together

The memories you created

The secrets you whispered

The skin you shed to show your true self

Theses connections push us a little father

Help us to grow a litte bit more

And bravely we can spread our wings and fly
