Like sparkled hope
I often realize between sipping
The bite of the teeth
That I have so much more growing to do
And sometimes that realization
******* hurts.

In some way
I'd like to think I got it
I'm chill, I'm flexible
Content?

And in the light of the sun
Marking me like go on ahead girl
I have to stop and say to myself
Drink some whiskey
It is what it is.

I wish it was easier
To get over and move past it all
Its like a hurricane of roses surrounds me
When I'm confronted with what was
And then I remember
"A film was created out of this very thing once."

I need a lot of reassurance today from those close to me
And there is no one who can really give it
There probably never really will be
Because we all have to get back up
And move
Alive and on our own
In the end.
