Get Real

A Song/poem About Letting Go of Fear, the Past, Making Changes, and Following Your Heart

Christina Arasmo Beymer
So I was chatting with a bird today
He had something profound to say
I didn't get it all, but the gist of it
Went something like this...

It's time to kiss the past good-bye
It's time to spread your wings and fly
It's time to follow what you feel
It's time to get real

Now this was something I had to hear
I've been living 'tween walls of fear
I'll take a hammer to the walls
Because now I have the balls...

To break through
Won't you come with me too?

I ran into an old friend of mine
I mean to talk with him all of the time
I see him daily in the bathroom mirror
Today I saw him much, much clearer

And he said...

It's time to kiss the past good-bye
It's time to spread my wings and fly
It's time to follow what I feel
It's time to get real

Pardon poetry and my prose, but here goes. I always wanted to write, but I m not formally educated as a writer. Nevertheless, I m not letting anything stop me. I do need a better proof reader than myself.  View profile
