Sometimes I forget the fire inside me Lungs lumped with coal Every exhale a chance to burn it all down
Through clenched teeth disaster awaits unrelenting release Furiously curious with the question of the day Why can't I control chaos?
My soft hands remember the calluses like it was yesterday Where have you gone old friend? Have you gone off the deep end or are you teetering on the edge of the board?
But that pool holds no water and your heart was meant for more Cracks in the concrete crumble over time and time again is nobody's friend past the clock
Be still my heart as it beats out of my chest for the chance to love again and rest on the arrest of feelings Rushing Pushing Finding their way out from burial long forgotten and left for dead
I'm a quieter fighter than most but the sun shines on me now and I'll take every stray ray I can get and every smile I can wear I'll just keep driving...
