Finally my shoulder blades have resurfaced
Been trapped down here in the mire without a purpose
The steps felt slow, but I know I’ve grown
No matter what the future holds I’m sturdy like a stone
A gorgeous girl with bones, a sturdy mind was sewn
Despite our differences, we would always get along
One day to the next it grew and became strong
A wad of expectations that could never be wrong
But envisioned plans turn to revisioned plans
Our heart wants grand, but the mind knows that
Tries to calm the gentle warrior, but its too late
Once his mind’s made, he won’t procrastinate
Though in your head its right, in real life its strife
Emotions in a net, pages flipped not read
Leave a pretty girl with time, someone else she’ll surely
find
But I want her all the time, but she’s gone no longer mine
It’s over let it go, It’s over feel the flow
It’s over, now its slow, It’s over, white as snow
The tricks of the mind, are a man’s worst kind
To his heart he binds, not knowing its love’s blind
And right when he feels the armor’s on too tight
He loosens it up, and his foe takes sight
A war in himself, his own personal hell
Projecting what he wants just to make it feel well
But what’s out there, is not what’s in here
So he’s driving now, and this life he steers
But brother Truth settles in and makes his nest
An unwelcomed guest, often leaves a mess
But its time to make a bed, must find his stead
No longer wrestle words of wisdom dead
But for once it sounds! That clarity resounds!
Still some healing to do, but on solid ground
No longer a basket case upon the waves
But clear cut copy that’s finally faced
Separate strips of paper, finally paste
Direction discovered, I will now embrace
I fell but got up, now I’m harder to knock down
Remember that, puppy? He broke free of the pound
