Focus on the present moment to be calmer
It’s how I’m stronger, how I hold onto the beauty I’m beholding longer
The unchangeable past versus the unknowable future
It is just a suture, I can’t open it because what it is isn’t what you were
I control expression not reaction
so there’s extraction, full refusal to let it deter or limit my satisfaction
I need to accept me anyway
While I demonstrate I can truly feel and control what I’d hate to say
What can exist without change
I can’t, sometimes shit is crazy and sometimes it ain’t
All is in flux and emotion is still motion
You were the ocean and I was just a wind driven commotion
I can accentuate my positives in my actions
instead of distractions like holding onto two memories in fractions
I’ll be careful of subliminal messages
focus on now not nest eggs, imaginary vestiges
Brave is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever been
but then again I don’t remember my transcendence
so I forget about you forgetting about me forgetting we exist
and then I reset and think about thinking about now and now
I fucking focus on the present moment, to be calmer
It’s how I’m stronger,
how I hold onto the beauty I’m beholding
longer

    This one in particular has me glued in position. I’m having trouble concentrating, Miss Banks.
