I've been building you for years now
Careful, poised and true
Ive coded in your feelings
And every single bruise
Ive etched in each memory
With the finest blades,
It was all to keep you safe
But its time I think
For some major upgrades
There's so much we need to change...
Your positivity needs an update
It was hacked by pessimism long ago
And it's infected everything
So it all needs to go.
Let's add more sunshine, more rainbows
Everything beautiful, that's where it goes.
Im overriding your worries
They've spammed your mind too much
They're meant to be small warnings,
Not an unnecessary clutch.
Let's take them down a notch
And insert some wisdom instead
Quotes and memories and poetry
To serve you through the worrying.
We can add a music function
For when the world becomes too much
Just listen to the sounds
To keep you sane and such.
I suppose we should also
Talk about tomorrow
We've lived on yesterday far too long
Always expecting by tomorrow We'd be gone
It's about time we look forward
So I've added in some goals
Some plans for you
To work towards.
Of course I promise rewards.
I'll schedule regular maintenance
From now on
Because you deserve
To be cared for.
Even on the days you feel
Far too gone.
