Crawl

Ma5on

You kicked dust in my face when I was already beat
I forced my way to the top
then you let go & let me drop

You spat blood in my face when I was already down
I pushed myself to the top
then you let go & made me drop

On my broken hands & bloodied knees
I return to you like a persistent disease
With bloodied fingers & a broken wrist
I send you a gift from my hate filled fist

You kicked mud at my face when I was already beat
I worked my way to the sky
then you let go & let me slide

The higher I climb the deeper I fall
The deeper I fall the steeper my crawl
The higher I climb the longer I fall
The longer I fall the steeper my crawl

You spat hate at my face when I was already down
I launched myself to the sky
then you let go & let me slide

  • whats write for me

    Interesting energy to what appears to be a personal dialogue. I wonder if this was written to self or directed at someone specific in your life?

            Yes lol - in English now! Though I can translate Greek to English letters slowly, but then have to know what the words mean. Doh!

            Launching oneself and being (finally) let go to soar is such a freeing feeling! 🙏🏻🕊
