Till’ the Very End
September 2020 Take a deep breathWhat do you see?Is it a blank canvas?Or a pile of string?Grab those scissorsAnd cut the tiesDon’t let them control youYou’re free to flyHold your brushAnd don’t let goYou have the powerTo paint your own roadCan’t you see?You have the strengthAnd if you don’tThat’s okayJust know that I’m hereI’ll hold…
