Stop.
Breath.
Calm yourself.
Think.

Don’t think of love
Don’t think of pain
Don’t think of loss
Don’t think of gain
Don’t think of bricks that weigh you down
Don’t think of chains held to the ground
Don’t think of falling
Don’t think of flight
 Just think of what makes you alright  

Don’t think of what you need
To bring the love to you

Like ordering a pizza
Love, you feel
As you take in this love, it goes
You become full
But as it’s gone, what then?
It will not bring you love again.

This temporary satisfaction
Comes to you
Cheers you
Raises you
Then tears you
Drops you
Shakes you
Stomps you
What love is love, that breaks you?
What is love, that loves and leaves
What is love, if temporary?
Is it really love?
Or is it a step
A step to bring you along
But does it lift you up?
Or drop and catch you in place?
Find a new love
Or better yet, what’s there
Joy is not what satisfies you
Rather, the satisfaction itself
It is not the embers, so hot
It is not the warmth of Hell

When you look for joy
It finds you
Leaves  again
Reminds you
That it was never there
It held you up, but why?
A fault that you had tried
Are these faults our joy?
Or are we just their toy
We use them up
We fall
We walk
And then we hit a wall
We stop
We cry
We hurt
We tried
For when we try these faults
We think they’re there until we die
But are they?

What again, is love?
It is not what brings you joy
It is the joy, itself
We love the joy
We trust a love to hold us
Keep us bold and strong
But then we all are wrong
We fall
They’ve dropped us
We ran
But they’ve stopped us

Look at what we’re chasing
And look at what we love
You cannot reach the top
If you dive below
What are you chasing?
You’re chasing dust
Be want a cloud
You’re sitting down
But we need to run
You want the joy
The love it brings
The smile it forms
The song it sings
Stop.
Breath.
Calm yourself.
Think.
Are you chasing what you love?
The clouds, up in the sky above?
Or are you chasing what you see
What you think will set you free?
