the night gives up her dreamers
a slow parting of ways
untangled arms and legs

and the daydreaming begins
as you climb into the day

Looking at you feels like flying*
When i know,
*I am actually falling.

tea that steeps too long
leaves a bitter taste
the very same way
we held on too strong
to something gone
we wasted months

I soaked up
years of your self hatred
and now I am here.

Cavities now rot my teeth,
I spent months trying to sweeten
the tea we let steep
for far too long

Look towards the positive
Always remain humble
See the good in everything
Show your gratitude and be thankful
Life is the gift that has been given
That my friends is clear
Live it graciously
Go forward and spread good cheer
