Vultures

Intend for it to go perfect
Accordingly to plan
But when it’s all upended you just do the best you can
Take it all in stride with every step along the way
Cherish every breath that helps you
Make it through the day

Past the point of no returning
Hoping to go back
Misplaced reminiscing
Is a danger to adapt
Saying that it’s the new normal
Doesn’t help it sit
Believing there’s a light beyond
Is how We get through it

If it’s just beginning people
Act like it’s the end
Circling around the fears
Like Vultures thoughts descend
Struggle lies with in to keep
Our eyes from seeing waste
Holding on to what is truth
With calm and with grace
