Sometimes I'm Alright - Charlie Parr

I live in a cave

Deep in the woods

In your heart

And it’s hard to leave

And face up to myself

In the light

Outside of your safe darkness

Sometimes I’m alright

Another time it’s hard to tell

Like finding light

In the bottom of the darkest well

But you asked me

I’m a slow moving fire

That burns cool and low

Throws no light

And causes no fear

And is barely there at all

Except in my

Potentiality

Sometimes I’m alright

Another time it’s hard to tell

Like finding light

In the bottom of the darkest well

But you asked me

We all share a soul

A light to light the heart

And it’s hard

When someone douses the flame

But it never goes away

No matter what anyone will say

You will rise

And deserve to do so
