Today I realized
These are still the best times
Switching off homework
And moments you get testy
But all day back n forth
Figuring out schedules
I know it’s too much
But I can never get enough
Playing like the kid in the hallway
I’ll always miss the things you used to say
Especially through actions every day
But I went so low last night
Woke up knowing I wasn’t alright
In trying to hide, trying to tiptoe
You still don’t tend to listen when I speak anymore
But I know you’re treading water and I can’t bring you to the shore
And I could let it make me continue to sink
But you still keep calling me
And the sun’s out
And we figure it out
And the little one wants to play
Even when it stresses you out
Never like it was
But I’m not gonna bury me anymore
Still lucky
No more keeping score
