What's With The Shoes?

One step.

One moment.

One heartbeat at a time.

Unicorn peg Square hole

To the misfits
The water balloon shaped
Non-squares
In a square hole world:

Your shape
Is your strength
Don't mind their edges
Their hollow words sold

Stand in faith
For what you're made of
Bring it every time
In the heat or the cold

Every season of life
Every challenge
Every hurdle
Every one is your goal

Don't apologize for not fitting their board with their predetermined prehistoric forms and expected shapes. No one ever put a dent into the universe riding the conveyor belt from their "here" to their "there".
Ever.

Be your shape.
Be you.
Grow.
Build.
Learn.
Keep going..

Till Done Does Us Part

You don't keep the pages of the calendar.
You don't keep the dead batteries.
You don't keep the dust from your shoes.
Yet..
You struggle to let go of the memories.
Resolutions.
Revolutions.
Placing the past in the past.
Memories.
Moments.
Weights.
I'll wait's.
Bruises.
Truces.
Lies.
I'll try's.
Resolutions.
Revolutions.

You got beat?
You got the beat.
Sound check
Your life's
Soundtrack
Hear every new start
New breath
New gasp
New task
Renewed fast.
Resolution.
Revolution.
(Keep going.)

Tell her

She is not an option, ever.

She is worth it, every time.

She is enough, more than enough.

She is not too much.

She rips the words out of your throat...
...because, wow, I mean, ok..

She is worth fighting for.

She is worth fighting with.

She is worth loving.

She is loved.

Tell her.

Tell her.

Tell her.

Fight for love

To those on your knees,
You have been seen.

To those who found your feet,
You have been heard.

To those in your seats,
You have been warned.

Those on their knees
Scraped.
Bruised.
Broken.
Blacked out.
Fighting for air.
White knuckled.
Down.

Look up.

Those on their feet

They're there.

For you.
With you.

Reach out a hand.

From your knees
or
On your feet.

Reach out a hand.

Support.
Lift up.
Pull up.

Raise up.

With an anthem
Rhythm
Beating
of what is
(( beating ))
from inside your eardrums
to deep inside your chest.

The beating.
Beats the beating.

Fight for Love.

Barbells.
Office deadlines.
Outreaches.
Family.
Friends.
Loosening ends.

Fight for Love.

On your knees.

On your feet.

Fight for Love.

Don't sit on it.
Fight for it.
From below.
From above.

Don't have a seat.
Don't hide your hand.
Don't clip your reach.

You will never reach someone.
On their knees.
On their feet.
If you
take
a seat.

A hand reached out
Is not an elbow resting on a table.
A hand reached out
Is not stuck halfway
A hand reached out
Cannot hide behind a desk.

Support comes from
The battle below
The battle above

Fight for what you love.
