there is a living that arrives after putting down the living

I held out for so long  you probably have as well

for who is to believe that it can be so

we’re told to strive to drive to take up the reigns of our lives slap that strap across the back of our will and power our way into the life we want to live

how could we have known with all this noise and direction trumped at us over and over and over and over again I feel the light touch of heartbeat as the sigh of breath holds the shape of my future

this is enough  so everyone says

who was to know that this enough arrives when the horse in front turns the eye of sight backwards spitting the bit from its mouth and walks on without

you there still breathing still beating now finally now walk on
