Belt Up

Belt up, buck up, shut up and let's go
On such a long road to finding pieces 
To glue together. 
Yes, words shatter souls
Hearts lay in dust of scorn
Contempt and malice 
Overwhelm what once was 
Tender touch of lust 
Cities were razed to dust
Stories were lost to history 
And yet, blood flows downwards
Sky is filled with dawns and dusks
Of impartial punctuality 
And you and I breathe 
So come on, let's go
Find what pieces we can 
Of our lost selves and glue together 
If a mangled piece of me 
Gets strangled in your going forward
Step, I will be blessed. So let me belt up.
