crisp dawns
bring a welcome clarity
amidst the chaos
that is this world:
this is a good life,
despite the ugliness
that surrounds
in oppressive waves
compressing our existence,
this is a good time
to be alive
breathe in the crispness
of this air
savor it,
feel the life
course through you,
embrace being alive
Month: August 2024
Determination
whatever comes next,
keep going;
dark hallways,
sinkholes,
impediments,
diversions,
keep going;
every step back
is an opportunity to gather
before taking two forward,
you cannot be held back
by outside forces,
you're meant to live,
be in the moment,
accept the challenge,
keep going
don't linger,
don't dwell,
you cannot be stopped,
keep going
