Let's grow together
tangled into each other
but I need your help
because the only thing I know
is how to outgrow

I miss you in a way that makes my heart ache
Yet here I am like a willow tree
That has died whilst standing
Even when I am alone
I do not belong to myself
For you have a place within the wilderness
Seeking the burial
Of my beautiful fate

If you can't hold on
you'll lose yourself in stages
parts of you have already fallen behind
Try to gather yourself up
being human can be tough
abusiveness is an ugly thing
don't believe the things that you're saying
At Least Try

Cry in the shower
Get it out if your system whenever possible
Origin doesnt matter
You need to release and move forward because no matter what you did well
You gave it your all
Next time might be better

You are a majestic Pelican;
powerfully built,
graceful in flight,
free as you glide the sea

Yet the sea is fickle;
throwing great squalls,
slashing with rain,
unsafe for flight

And there I am, for you;
a large rock in the sea,
a point of safety,
weathering the storm

Every time your sea gets stormy;
I stay in the same place,
being the same way,
your anchor in a hurricane

Day after day,
and week after week,
I still remain a symbol of strength
for you to escape harm

I pray that you find
a place to firmly plant your feet
because one day, I may need a rock
As my sea gets stormy,
and I become the Pelican
