Falling asleep is a whirlwind
Hope is like a wave in the sea
Crashing up against golden shores
Sometimes life builds us breakwaters
Structures in our self-sanctioned sea
Preventing the waves
From hitting sand
Some of us have less
There are times where they crumble
There are times they are rebuilt
And though I hate the word unique
Being different
Is what makes us human
Our every breath is taken differently
And that's our twisted beauty
That helps us live on as we do
So your breakwaters
Have sunken away
You do not sustain as many halters
As other people do
Good!
Indulge in your greatness,
Write in that blessed water,
Call yourself human!
