“I’ll Get Along”

Thanks for the precious time.
Thanks for teaching me to climb.
Thanks for the crazy times.
Thanks for showing me the world.
Thanks for the soulful sounds.

All I do is smile.
All I do is giggle.
All I do is tickle your fancy.
All I do is smell freshly.
All I do is play you a tune.

For the times I didn’t.
For the times I felt lost.
For the times I snuck away into my shell.
For the times I shied away from things.
For the times I cried for the deep pain inside.

Now is the time for my boundaries.
Now is the time for me.
Now is the hardest time to get along.
Now is the time to remember the small moments of joy.
Now is the time for laughter, joy and comfort.

I didn’t get along.
I did try to get along.
I would have given my tears to get along.
I shall miss those that didn’t get along.
I shall never forget how you tried to get along.

I don’t promise to get along all the time.
I do promise to get along within my boundaries.
I hope that we will get along, with love.
