There’s a time for all that gets done
and it’s how you see the best of me.
But there’s a lot set aside in the meantime
while you’re caring for other things—
things you want to hold on to
and hold on to, and hold on to.
But you have to ease the pressure
and view the whole sky and get perspective,
and that’s where you put aside the outlooks that don’t work anymore
and open your arms to what brings you further.
And it kind of becomes a thing
where all the emotion is built in and you go with that
and you see the love that it took to get there.
