Focus


By: Brandon Elliott


Focus on the positive, fight off fear's demise.
Tear off a piece of happiness, focus on the highs.
The sleeping moon will shade your dreams
with violets and a whim.
To hold your own in the rising water;
To refuse to sink, to swim.
Focus on the early morn, be the only one.
Tackle every negative thought, focus on the Sun.
The I Don't Care's will resolve themselves
as "not good enough" fades away.
To juggle emotions as the wind recycles;
To stop yourself, to stay.
Focus on the cancelling, don't be afraid to be insane.
Shatter what you used to know, focus on the pouring rain.
And every connection will come unglued,
every string will tug your Soul.
To be yourself in a world of Don'ts;
to love everything--to lose control.
