7. I stand up for what is right

Date: 6-13-2023

Lucas' p.o.v

Chronic confusion

Half truths, possible financial burdens?

Real life fairytales

Ongoing pretend charade

Now is the time to defend the unborn or maybe not

I stand up for what is right

Call me crazy, but I still long to see beyond these hazy skies

Ode to hope, wishful thinking

Never again will I hit rock bottom and remain stuck in the past

Falling through the cracks, reality brings me back down to Earth

Uncharted territory I travel in

Short is life is fragile just like my smile

I walk a mile and realize God is my strength

Optimism crawls out from underneath the ocean floor

Nirvana opens the door to a much brighter tomorrow
