Are you up?
Are you down? Are you mobile? Are you around? Do I have space to be? Or do I need to see What needs to done In this moment I'm free. I'm exhausted In body I'm confused In mind But I keep looking to find The strength To be, to see, to plan... To simply, breathe. Oh you wicked life You've dealt your card You've cut right through Our burgeoning hearts. You're cruel, you're mean We didn't see The space we had, When we could just be. Now it’s: Medical kit Appointments galore Restrictions Contradictions Redactions And action. Always, action. I'm screaming for space A slower pace Grace I'm struggling with Energy Balance Conflict in needs Planting seeds Of hope, instead of fear. I'm here. I want to be here I'm clear. My love for you Will keep me always here and near. So. Today. Our lives are different. I need to find the good. I've now understood That life is precious It's raw It hurts It's beauty is flawed But it has a new law. Live. Love. Today. We may not get more. I love you with every claw Of my fingers Trying to close the door Against the tide and the roar Of my pain. It's insane. I love you I want the best for you. My heart bleeds With seeds of desperation To find reason In this season of confusion That has become So precious. So precious. Today. We have today. Live that way. Give way. Play. Stay In the moment. It's my only way To make sense of Each precious, precious Day. I hope I can do this. I'm trying to do this. Please be patient while I try. I can't lie. This is hard. I'm relaxing my guard To be human. We're both human Struggling. I have no more delusion. In this new life Full of strife We have today. Only today. I'm trying to live that way. I love you.
