The tide's receding

Did you make it?

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

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

Every drop that’s ever been

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

Did we make it?


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

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

A moat so shallow,

Your thoughts so deep they might pull you under

Did you make it?


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

Stack more to the teetering tower,

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

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.

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


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

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

The walks we take are framed in 1’s and 0’s

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

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


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 feel

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


you’ll wander and wonder

Did you make it

~~~~~~

I’m hopeful
