The tide's receding

Did you make it?

Do you hear it in the distance

That breathing sine wave

~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~

So close you can feel it in your lungs

~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~


~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~

That this castle is really just a type of prison held low

A moat so shallow,

~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~

~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~


The glimmer of new only lasts as long as that of dew

~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~

~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~

Dig your heels deep

Let their hands trace the words on your back

Take that time to find your feet

~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~


Nothing is a mistake. There’s no win and no fail. There is only make.

Did you make it?


Has it all been mined? Did that rush last this time

~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~

~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~

do they mean less than the ones that are filled with suns and shallows

We should make it!


Do you understand it? Do the whispers even matter anymore? Love over blood, over rules, over certainty

Pulling yourself from the ashes again and again

does it ever end?

Did you make it?


Do you feel weary? Feel the push and pull

the fight and flight

Don’t let them make you,

Clawing back the broken for the right remake it?

Did you all make it?


Make it from the old, from a time before sand was made to think

Make it slower

Make it feel

~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~~~~


~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~

Did you make it

~~~~~~
