oh stranger, where did you place your great potential.

where do you go when you slink off into the night,
with your eyes set on the tips of your boots,
-tired, worn out, and abused.

how do you live within that shell you call a human form?
do you ever find time to quiet your mind?
do you ever sleep on something other than a pile of old memories?

oh, when will you see that you hold the key to the kingdom.
when will you see that your potential sleeps just below your skin.
buried deep where that stranger left it.

Not long from now, you will find yourself again.
and when you do, I hope for your sake,
it throws you through that brick wall you worked so hard to build.

will you join us that day?
will you rejoice with us on that happy day?
your life lies in your own hands.

Rise from this dust,
love yourself enough to stop living in a state of flux,
and join us, oh great potential.
Join us.
