Opportunity is on vacation,
Utilized skill is buried under the wasteland,
Terminal saltiness is aboard every vehicle,
Redialed creativity might as well be
As rare and unusual as an albino lion,
Get a chance to be inspirational and
Every day you will have a bullseye on you,
That sort of thing can follow you,
Right on your back like a talented bodyguard,
Across the years it becomes a point of pride,
Nothing could stop you after a week like this,
So just close out those who cannot see that
From the outside tension to here with you,
Every touch from you is lightning shared,
Ready to climb with you anywhere

Completing the circle at the end of this year,
Opening a package filled with pictures,
Making a meal from so far away,
Playing a game without rules or pieces,
Laying down no longer a guarantee of sleep,
Incentives to work harder fading away,
Many of the days this month seem way too long and
Exit just seems like a delay of the inevitable,
Nobody calls anymore and emails all from strangers,
Tearing up paper a display of cleaning house,
Summer was tough and so is winter,
Temperatures not even the important part,
Optional choices are sleep and food these nights,
Ridiculous people don’t bother us here,
Maybe we should escape more often,
Completely ignore the world for a day,
Let down your guard and do what you want,
Organize your strength and stand up straight in life’s hurricane,
Unless we love cool and kiss and trust,
don’t know where I would be without you
