One day at a time
To help with a bitter mind
One drink to remember
Will put you right back in time
One thousand treasures
On every page in the book
A start that follows an end
Fine day to try again
To wipe all the slates clean
Why wait for a friend to
Create a fantasy
Make peace with a memory
Or just box it up
A start that follows an end
After waiting countless days
Until the
Quiet burning has displaced
All of the
Burdened beasts who
Will erase
Maybe the
Future’s smiling
On it’s face
So true
No planets exist
When you don’t believe in circles
No promises
Without anything to wager
Take everything missed
As usable elevation
Parameters set on
Only what comes before you
One thousand treasures
On every page in the book
I’ll put a million times
Every ounce of my
Will towards another try
Will towards a start that follows an end
