Each step is 
a reflection and 
a reference to 
the one above 
and the one 
below and each 
one is a
chance to make 
the last one 
better than before 
or even after 

Being content is
the antacid of
an otherwise chaotic 
life and discontentment 
is the heartburn 
of an otherwise 
sad and negative 
and miserable life 

After the fall 
I fully embraced 
I don’t wanna 
and I allowed 
myself no wait 
found myself and 
let myself pursue 
anyone else who 
and I slid
to my lowest 
depths of darkness 
but always keeping 
an eye out 
for the light 
for I knew
that one day 
I would surface 
and shake off
I don’t wanna 
and then don 
the shiny armor 
of I will
wanna gonna do 

Love is an 
open window that 
by no fault 
of its own 
catches a passing 
breeze turning it
into something that 
it was never 
supposed to be 
after which the 
curtains never drape 
the same way
