(511)▪︎[ Doing What? … 6•22•2021 ]

[ Live, Laugh Cry ]
[ The First Two Seem Doable ]
[ But The Third One You Have To Ask ( WHY? ) ]

[ Because It Is Inevitable ]
[ You Collapse On The Kitchen Table ]

[ After All The Fun Stops ]
[ The Smiles Drop ]

[ Do You Have A Strong Shoulder To Lean On? ]
[ Or Is It Gone? ]

[ Ran Away To Look For One Of Their Own ]
[ Leaving You All Alone ]

[ Again ]

[ But You Are A Rock ]
[ You Are The Strongest Around ]
[ But Sometimes, Not Clear Around The Clock ]

[ You Rebound Better Than Most ]
[ You Are Like The Best Setting For Toast ]

[ Done, But Not Burnt ]
[ Even Though You Are Normally The Rock ]
[ Words Can Still Hurt ]

[ Others Usually See The Live & Laugh ]
[ They Don’t See The Cry When Hurtful Comments ]
[ Cut You In Half ]

[ You Keep That Calm, Cool Look On Your Face ]
[ All The While Standing Tall & Proud In Place ]

[ Live, Laugh, Cry One After The Other ]
[ After One, Wait For Another ]

[ Just Don’t Give Up & Let The Cry Piece Bring You Down ]
[ Walk Around Being The Smiling Clown ]

(942)▪︎[ Don’t Let Them … 7•13•19 ]

[ Let ‘Em Laugh ]
[ Let ‘Em Spin ]
[ But Don’t Let Them Cut You In Half ]
[ & Win ]

[ Where Do You Start? ]
[ When Do You Finish? ]
[ Do You Give It Your Heart? ]
[ Or Is That Just A Wish? ]

[ When You Watch What You Say ]
[ & Then Figure Things Out ]
[ You’ll Come To The Day ]
[ When You Figure Out What Life Is All About ]

[ When You Play, You Play To Win, Not Lose ]
[ You Make The Conscious Choice ]
[ To Choose ]
[ Of Whether Or Not To Use Your Voice ]
[ Or Drown Your Sorrows In Bottles Of Booze ]

[ Alcohol Is Not The Choice That You Should Make ]
[ There Could Be ]
[ The Chance When You Wake ]
[ Your Head Could Feel Like You’ve Been Through An Earthquake ]

[ When Your Head Rattles & Rolls ]
[ It’s Your Body That Takes The Toll ]
[ Each & Everytime You Come To ]
[ You Feel That You Are Less Than Whole ]

[ In Today’s Society ]
[ Much Less Your Own Family ]
[ One Day You’ll Wake & See ]
[ How Things Are No Longer Free ]
[ & How Destructive Your Behavior Can Be ]

[ To Yourself ]
[ & To Everyone Else ]

~ The End ~
