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
~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~
Do you know it’s safe
That this castle is really just a type of prison held low
A moat so shallow,
~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~
Did you make it?
The glimmer of new only lasts as long as that of dew
Stack more to the teetering tower,
~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
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?
~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
Do you even mind?
~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
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
~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~
~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~
~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
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?
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~
Make it from the old, from a time before sand was made to think
Make it slower
Make it feel
Make it balanced, understand, the storm in you was there to give rise to those who can’t be silenced
you’ll wander and wonder
Did you make it
there?
I’m hopeful
