Each moment not distracted
Tears have an open invitation
To feel others grief and pain
To contemplate my own
To think about relations lost
To mourn the loss of childhood homes
To feel the void from those who’ve passed
To miss the ones still living
To hold a grudge for those who hide
To accept grace from the giving
To feel the pressure to perform;
Climb out of these four walls
To process guilt from the unchanged;
Ignore the sirens calls
The pressure builds, the tears release
I make it through this patch
Knowing life is beautiful
I’ll drink it down the hatch
