'To Sow & Be Sown'
© Raul Cortes Jr. 10-24-19
You make the ego die a fast death.
How can I boost myself if you inspired the last breath?
All desires are driven, overridden by who I gave my license to.
So whether good or bad, in every situation I hyphen you.
You don't change with the seasons.
I've grown & evolved for the same reasons.
Everything has fallen apart until it fell into place.
I couldn't remain in a fallen state, eventually I fell into grace.
You are the most high, dropped me off into my rise.
The stronger the downpour, the drops bounce more, how long I could stay grounded determined how high I could fly.
Is gravity pulling me down or pulling me to the sky?
Can life be understood in reverse? Still gears must shift forward when you drive.
I live to under stand, striving to remain beneath the soil.
Regardless of the seasons, I will strain until I'm a fully extended coil.
