The tide's receding

Did you make it?

Do you hear it in the distance

That breathing sine wave

Every drop that’s ever been

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,

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

Did you make it?


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

Stack more to the teetering tower,

let someone hold you

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

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

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 you even mind?

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

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

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


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

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

Did you make it?


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

the fight and flight

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

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 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
