A Breed Apart

We are those who long for the sky
And like birds, we seek to fly.
We are explorers in a contemporary time
And we search for all that comes to mind.
We are daring brave and free
And to fly high, is to live, is to be.
We might even be somewhat smart,
But most importantly, we're a breed apart.

Science

I know blue is the ocean and the sky,
But I scientifically don't know why.
I know how very high birds can fly,
But I scientifically don't know why.
I know all living things grow and die,
But I scientifically don't know why.
I know sad things make us cry,
But I scientifically don't know why.
I know scientifically I can't answer why,
But I spiritually always search and always try.

The Hurting Heart

I wonder to myself, aloud at times,
Why so much hurt in this life of mines?
I think of the pain and the hurt in my heart,
Why does love play such an important part?
It is those who love that hurt the most,
And a broken heart can be a life long host.
So what can we do to help wounds heal?
We continue to follow what our heart's feel.
We follow our hearts down a path of light.
We seek hapiness, good and all that's right.
We continue to wish, hope and pray.
We must keep our chin up day after day.
So your hurting heart is one not to shame,
For it's the loveless hearts that feel no pain.
