I often linger in a midway space 

to check these calls and texts.

I often stride by the water and shore

To view the river with purpose.

And every heart leads home from code

when the space is made for moments.

On a lot of these levels there's a lot to maintain 

as our days enter highs and taper to mid.

But we turn to this landscape 

along these yards in a picturesque town.

And we stand along the shoreline

to itemize bit by bit 

how all these dreams are set to unfold.

It’s a lessening of the strain that takes the pressure down.

And it’s the opening of an avenue that clears away the doubt.

It's the showing of a new tone to replace the worn.

And it’s the recouping of a day that gives a new accord.

What you can be fruitful about is a big part of the game. 

Because it takes that extra spark to frame you as all-in.

And it's where I see a new legacy now. 

Spanning out from the mission to be the guiding light I absolutely have to be.

Yes, timetables move forward. But you slow things down and you switch off sometimes so you can breathe.

And it all spans out from you in greater light.

I see how a lot of things combine 

to change your view 

on what everything’s supposed to even mean. 

But that’s the way our best selves move closer 

to what we feel more greatly

when the tide comes in 

and it becomes more about what you can do

with what you have now 

and all the satisfaction that could bring. 

And it’s just like you could feel the pulse 

of the one who wants to connect— 

which brings electricity 

to the days that make up your journey.

A lot of times it comes down 

to the beautiful things you create in the meantime.

So you prompt everything you can

to awaken what your next move’s going to be

and you express a lot 

about what you think thru

and that helps you outline 

what matters and what doesn’t.

And then it’s like you’re dazzled 

because you reach a new stage 

and it sinks in how you got there 

and you want to hold on to this moment 

but also move forward.
