giving up to keep going

I give up

so I can keep going.

Obligated to live

to change

to engage

to regenerate

I surrender -

I’m good at this

I’m not good at that


I give up

So I can keep going.

They’re like this.

I’m like that.

That’s just the way we were

That’s just the way it is

I release them so I can accept me

continually

When I say let go, already

I mean to hold the stillness that is me, essentially

I give up

So I can keep going.

Choice

Fate

Destiny

I make contact

So I can keep going.


Lost it all

I give up

So I can keep going.

It’s all my fault

It’s not my fault

I give up

So I can keep going.

Gave it all up

I give up

So I can keep going.

Something new comes in

And just like that, irresistible

I’m pulled in

Faith

Trust

Dignity

I’m pulled in

I give up

So I can keep going.
