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

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

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


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

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

A moat so shallow,

Your thoughts so deep they might pull you under

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


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

Stack more to the teetering tower,

let someone hold you

Dig your heels deep

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

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!


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

Pulling yourself from the ashes again and again

does it ever end?

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


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

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

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

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

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


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?
