"i chose this life as is my design...to sail free. set, re-set & coursed by the wind. i've seen much to come to know much but the beautiful souls found out here remain unmatched by anything else the world below has to offer. some, like me...flowed up here by design. others are drawn up here by necessity yet unbeknownst to them...by design as well. tossed to ground too early but created to make this place what it was meant to be...a paradise just a stones throw away from earth.
scarred by the loss of trust in their own heart, these are the ones hurt by a few they allowed into their world. worlds inhabited by those they were tasked to protect and/or care for. beautiful, pretty, lovely...in demand souls designed for greatness & shine now come to protect an embered flame under lock & key...not allowing anyone near it. they built castles up here as safety & solitude has now become their peace. after hearing their stories...one can only come to agree.
sailing with a few i've come to understand to give only what they are prepared to receive. to promise only what i can & to come to understand the language of silence. the struggle to remain unmoved for those they love is greater now than anyone they encounter as these are the ones designed to love so hard they bleed out the pain of it...something they feel their worlds can no longer afford. yet flame snuffed out too early by anothers greed is destined to shine again...even if only for a moment. something i've found worthy to protect & cultivate as needed. no cage should house them...no greed should use them...& no lie should ever be used to enfold them.
these airs...are an oft-times lonely place to sail as it is understood these have duties beyond me. yet to find one & share a moment is like finding gold. to see their re-ignition at sail is like watching the sun born at full strength for the first time. all in a patch of sky created outside the worlds we are tasked to protect. as a navigator, you own & keep only what you take with you. for me, it is an immortality housed in those forever moments birthed at their re-ignition. in a perpetual space that remains to inspire, keep up...or even expand. all set, re-set & coursed...by the wind"
