Cherish the victories
Count them up one by one
Try not to notice what a small
Pile they make when I’m done
I remember a past with a future
Before that pragmatic and sensible lie
Convinced me that sending roots into the ground
Is the best way to fly
Make believe there’s no road out of town
Hits the county line and it just ends
Imagine that this is all I imagined
It’s nice to pretend
Build a small house, fill it with small things
Things that are mine
Lead a small life, and feel content
Most of the time
And that’s fine.
