Its alright

I do what we all do,
I create
but you know
I am not talking about bringing another life in here.

I read and I'm not talking about the lies they print
to keep the majority of us under a fist of iron fear.

I listen and I am not talking about the advice you wish to give
it took a while but I'm comfortable in my own skin.
but its alright because there is beauty in the breakdown

So I watch the cast of the shadows
filling the empty sand,
the magnitude of silence
sits in front of me
and when the chance to feel small comes

I take it.

I just hope we all finally realize before its too late.
