Taken for Granted (Take it back)
Take it from me
You will see
There is so much more
We can all be
If we do not flee
Take a trip
Down memory lane
But this time
Ignore the pain
Forget who is to blame
And let go
Of the shame
Take just one more trip
Or one last sip
Before sanity starts to slip
Try to get a grip
Even when moods
Start to flip
We are all captains of
Our own sinking ship
Take it for what it is worth
Let yourself connect
With the earth
Take it one step at a time
And it will all be fine
Take the good with the bad
The joy along with the sad
There will always be someone
Who gets mad when they see
Anyone else glad
Take a moment to think
With a nod and a wink
Keep searching for that missing link
And when you find it
Try not back away or shrink
While standing on the brink
Take what you can get
Do not ever stop or sit
Or the pieces will never fit
And the fire will go unlit
Teeth will grit
Words will spit
Rule we be re-writ
Take any and every chance
Because you never know
When it will be your last dance.
