STAY FOCUSED

Nobody else would just have stumbled blindly into the world,
Anyone else would have thought through all the evidence,
Tell me they would.

Gallantly,
I sail into waters I could not hope to swim in,
Sail around,
ghost ship,
touching lightly,
then I will drift on again.

Keep it together,
You remember the good times,
Get by.
Take consolation from the
Friends who will help you sometimes.
Nobody has to give you a single moment of time,
Nobody has to give you a single moment of time.

Say,
Say that I’m better than before
And say that I’ve grown since that time.
Say that I’m basically the same,
Nothing changes and I don’t why.
Say that my blindness is what makes me,
None of the things I have thought.
Help me to find the strength to kill
All the things that I could not have thought.

Guide me to joy and hope and keep me away from the eye of the storm,
Guide me to joy and hope and keep me away from the eye of the storm.
Imagine if someone up there had the answer to all of my prayers
Imagine if I could find the strength to handle them for myself.
