Keeping Myself Human

If today is a blank page
And we are all the things God wants to say
Then I’m just trying to come out the right way
But I keep running on and forget to punctuate

If today is a clean slate
I’m just trying to not make the same mistakes
But the beasts are at the door, and they bay
Trapping me between my skeletons and a hard place

And if today is just a day
I’ll just make it a good day
Keeping words few and devoid of disdain
Keeping myself human along the way
