She Is The Hero

She never stops fighting for what is right.  She never backs down.  She is the one that suffers silently for things that no one will ever understand.  She smiles when others wouldn't.  She smiles when she shouldn't have to.  Her gaze cuts through the haze of uncertainty and confusion--because she is fierce...  She bears the weight of world, because it is through her that she will bear all those that will come after... to shape and sculpt the world into what it will be.... She is the vehicle, She is the means....She is beauty.

The betrayal she endures only unveils her vulnerability and true beauty.... to live and love despite what others do, to rise above and persevere...and to often...forgive.  She gives effortlessly and  knows when to hold back to create safety for herself and maintain the self-respect she deserves.

An all the while, she seeks persistently for clues to elusive, unanswered questions....answers that will open her heart like a fountain of water to the thirsty traveler.....answers that will unlock doors to the creation of transcendent experiences....

There is no man that will ever truly know Her.... Her mind, Her heart, Her experience, Her burden, Her loss, Her self-doubt, Her sorrow, Her strength or Her triumphs.  The world somehow sees all of Her and beckons Her to keep bringing all that she is to each new day that comes.

And here I stand....all amazed.... watching, in absolute admiration...pretending to understand, pretending to know.... realizing that the only thing I do know, deep down inside, is that at the end of the day I will never know....

I sit on the side....and watch in awe....wondering, hoping...... wishing that someday, that I can be part of her....like the consistent ebb and flow of the tide..... moving together in beautiful natural unison....in an important pattern that Heaven smiles upon.....

.....Do I dare ask..... Can She can still save me yet....?
