Dancing to the Drum

He said that life was a mirror of the night. We are shadows floating through the mist and coming up against the day. This I did not believe. He said we are bound for tomorrow in a moment of eternity, that I and you are nothing but thought. This I did not believe. Time will not be the enemy. Time will smooth the surface, make the moment into movement into tomorrow into never and never again. This I believe. We have hope. We have love. We have beauty. And when we wake to do it all, to do it all like yesterday before and the next thereafter, we will wake and enjoy the day. This I believe.
And I believe in you.
