In the midst of a shift
There is always somewhat
Of a draw
A draw back
A draw back in
Where tension breaks
Tension breaks the silence
Silence can break your
Heart over the laughter
Of a child
Over the laughter
Through the grief
We swam in circles
Our parting gifts
To others overgrown
Overgrown fences
Mended, lended comfort
To the enslaved
The saved stumbling
Across the finish line last
Some minutes after
The blast
