Just breathe

Just breathe.
There's a better world
Just on the other side of today
Without this suffering
Where the skies reign forever blue
But without the first step
There will never be any end
I will do what must be done
This 

         is
             my
                   one

                           last

                               chance

                                             to

                                            breathe.

Sandcastles

We build great castles
To safegaurd our treasures 

Resolute guardians
To do what we cannot

Fires burn brightly against the night
Pushing back the deep dark

But change is unyielding
And cracks can only grow

Time keeps on slipping away
Taking strength with it 

Burdens will become too great
Foundations will crumble

And when the walls fall away
Our fears are laid bare

And with nothing left to hold them
Dreams fall away.
