tell me how to keep moving
keep moving
i’ve seen you do it
teach me: where do i find joy
after the breaking point
i’ve seen you do it; i need to do it
keep moving
eyes to see the patch of green scratching up from concrete
defying the hostile earth
ears to hear melody answering shouts and screams
undying, eternal mirth
open mouth to taste the rain, washing all we’ve built away
a torrent, still sweet on the tongue
open heart, holding light for those with fists raised up to strike
a force yet to be undone
tell me how to keep moving
teach me: where do i find joy
after the breaking point
i’ve seen you do it
i need to do it
keep moving
