Description
Become that which you can't find in the world.
Become the unflinching stubborness that holds on to truth,
Become the tree that waters itself, for others bears fruit.
Become the water that's suitably fluid and solid,
Become that honesty that doesn't need to be horrid.
Become that friend you always knew you wanted.
Become that lover who will never take you for granted,
Become the soil that wriggles with death and decay,
Only to nourish growth that will soon make it clay,
I know you are tempted to give up this fight,
The losses are abundant, you don't have the might,
But if you've already decided to fail,
I beg you,
Fail holding your head up aright
