The snail climbs
Barely gets off the ground
Only gets high enough
To be scared looking down
Little birds flap their wings
Stand on the edge of the nest
Practicing what they’ll do
Afraid to leave the rest
Things I reflect on
As I ponder my life
Wondering why I continue
To run from strife
Just a few moments
A little extra time
I do want to feel love
And make you all mine
Hope is all we have
You’re still the only one
Just save me your love
I promise we’re not done.
