The claims we have
are like chains.
A dictation to
never walk away.
Because we possess
and we preserve,
and to lose the best
is completely absurd.
Jealousy is only a symptom
of the hands that will not unclasp.
It is a side effect
that we work past.
It is a gentle nudge
to not squeeze too tight;
readjust the sight,
bring what's right to light.
The unshaking foundation
does not like to be touched
it is harmless, we know
but it feels like too much.
It says "leave me alone"
I've been through far too much
to risk any small cracks,
or leave this loss to luck.
But the truth is, it knows
that when all the world falls
it will still stand upright
mortar not chipped at all.
We stand tall.
Only together will we ever fall.
