Now that I have taught<\/p>\n
my tongue<\/p>\n
to speak what is in<\/p>\n
my heart.<\/p>\n
I now must find<\/p>\n
the one who will listen.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now that I have looked<\/p>\n
long enough<\/p>\n
to finally see.<\/p>\n
I now must find<\/p>\n
the one who will understand.<\/p>\n

Now that I have walked<\/p>\n
this valley<\/p>\n
and reached the<\/p>\n
mountaintop.<\/p>\n
I now must find<\/p>\n
the place I started from.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now that I have learned<\/p>\n
to love<\/p>\n
and<\/p>\n
to lay down my arms.<\/p>\n
I now must find<\/p>\n
the one who I can hold on to.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now that I have drank up<\/p>\n
life’s bounty<\/p>\n
and eaten my fill.<\/p>\n
I now must find<\/p>\n
the will to feed others.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Your life, my life, his life<\/p>\n
is never finished<\/p>\n
merely abandoned.<\/p>\n
Know what you do not know<\/p>\n
and you will complete<\/p>\n
the circle<\/p>\n
and stand where<\/p>\n
you’ve always stood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
