He holds me in his big arms, Drunk and I am seeing stars This is all I think of. - Lana Del Ray, Video Games

Doing The Right Thing Upholding your values Refusal to be treated like a fool Embracing what change can bring Is doing the right thing Standing up for what's right A star once dulled now shining bright Ready to walk out and show There's something better out there, you know Trusting that you did the right thing Trusting the good things change can now bring.

Change Is Afoot Uncertain and unsure Scared and insecure Change is afoot There's the open door Walk through if you dare Then things won't be the same You weren't really happy Your spirit was claimed Through that open door Is the brightest of lights And dreams filled with hope The beauty of hindsight It's time to move forward The threshold is near To jump into darkness And banish the fear Trust you'll land safely Trust you'll always be OK And gain so much more Than if you were to stay.

Amongst the bricks of devastation Where the wall came down of #life It is all about translation You rest your head on bricks Or rise. Excerpt from "Diamond in the mud".
