Above the Wreckage (a poem)

Take some time to count your fortunes
Know that nothing here will last
Neither have they been elusive
Fading fast, fast


Don't waste your beautiful
Your beautiful life
Don't fall behind under
These tides of strife, down here


Now, you must rise above the wreckage
Up from dark times before
See it all fall away around you
See it fall, fall

Don't hold these wings in chains
These practical chains
Open these hands and let
The wind carry you away, away
