Start, Stop

Remove the dead leaves Peel off the old layers Start all over when it all falls apart Remove the medications Peel off the dermal patches Start all over when you have a broken heart Retrace your steps Pack your belongings in a case Stop fighting all the good intentions Retrace your roots Pack your life into your bag Stop wishing for the future, there is none.
