Not There Yet

I’m not there yet and that’s ok Two steps forward one and half step backward The war is won by inches not feet I’ve been here and my vision is blurred That’s ok because I know the fog isn’t forever Sometime you have to take a hit to get a hit Bittersweet deserves its own hotel key Despite it all I still have a renewed grit Life is short and this war will be shorter I already see my problem as part of the past Like a movie I prefer life not in white and black Marred with colors we picked the best cast I press on with a trolling skip The devil dances and so can the angels Like black ops this mission requires psyops Beautifully in control of chaos’ variables
