Life

One of those days
Family being family
Pulled or pushed in strange directions
I love them, have loyalty
But my life is my life.

I take refuge in the sangha
And breathe

I know their weaknesses
I know their strengths
They know mine
We\'re family
But I am not a judge

I take refuge in the Dharma
And breathe

I try and follow my conscience
I maintain my independence
I will not take sides
How can I chose?
Why should I decide

I take refuge in the Buddha
And breathe

It\'s family
In a week will be forgotten
Supporting each other is a habit
So soldier, soldier on.
My life is mine.

And breathe

And breathe
