Understanding the Understood

Giving Up The Impossible

February 23, 2008

Giving up on something impossible

What a nice feeling

Relief setting me free to explore

Maybe I will find something possible

But for now I will just live

Give up the chase

It is exhilarating and agonizing

Right now I will gladly feel nothing

Understanding the Understood

I don't understand

Words unsaid are banned

Everything we've planned

Is like trying to swim through sand

Hours can feel so bland

The dying fire is never fanned

Wanting to run but doing nothing but stand

The unreachable always seems so grand

We need to rise up and demand

Ourselves to expand

So I can understand

Words erupting cannot be banned

Take what I've planned

Remain tall on that sand

So the hours don't feel bland 

Use all my strength to get that fire fanned

Sprint instead of stand

Live in my reality that I can make grand

Because I did demand

Myself to expand
