Relate
Open your eyes for just a second
Grab hold of the universe
Reverse your destiny
Incessantly trying
Scream a little louder
A little longer
Stronger than before
Mark the wet pavement
With the tip of your miniscule finger
Linger on to the legacy of forever
Scratch your initials into the tree
With your dirt filled nail
Failing is not an option
Speak a little softer
A little lighter
Brighter than before
Despite the struggle
Induce your future
And clutch the candor
Inhale because it’s necessary
You need the extra breath
Breathe
Twist the story
to a more feasible plot
Reachable dream
This is not me
This is you
Relate to the message
This is the presage
Have questions
Leave impressions
Create answers
Cancel the cynicism
And just listen
Blissful at mind
Open in heart
Absorbent at soul
Relate to my story
Relate
