The Pursuit - Faye Blais

His eyes go almond thin

When he’s raging

He’s got luggage

His bags are busting at the seems

Don’t drink the poison

Set yourself free instead

Learn to love yourself

Through the eyes of everyone else

Set your courage free

Don’t suffocate your dreams

Drop the knife

Don’t cut yourself out

Stop the fight

And learn to love yourself

Don’t drink the poison

Unfreeze your frozen self

Leave your heart open

And sweep the space between
