Finding Your Feet Again

this is what it's like
finding your feet again
the part of you that couldn't
finally thinks you can

you're taking off some time to do this
a small apartment bedroom rearranged
to know that you are loved
you're finding your feet again
the part of you that couldn't
finally thinks you can

a brownstone on a street in brooklyn
the light tier flash from temperature to time
and people do the same
you're falling asleep again
part of you a dreamer
and part of you is dreamt

and you said...

go now in the light of your god
go now in the love of your god
go now in the peace of your god
go now in the joy of your god

--Denison Witmer

That song really struck me today. I was listening to it and it really seems to encapsulate much of what I've been feeling not only this past week but the past few years. I made one of the biggest decisions of my life a year and a half ago and I got hit with some crazy stuff a year ago now. And all of it left me feeling a little like a weeble wooble. I haven't exactly fallen down but I'm not doing a very good job of standing up either. So this song really spoke to me. It's always been one of Stephens favorites and I'm glad it popped up today on my ipod. I guess I should keep that thing on shuffle more often.
