ReBuild



Destruction comes after a build.

Hence to rebuild is the only option.

Not to face more destruction but to prevent.

based on lesson learnt, so with caution.

Note all tainted, with a trace of past mind constructions.

Reconstruct your constructs, knowing to build is an unsong core function.

To falter, is to regret, or perceive threats, in past conjunctions.

Reminisce but remember this, rebuild is the only option.

Await not outer distractions.

For we can’t live living another’s actions.

In between the red mist and being true to your passion.

We all walk a path, the destination is solely our attraction.
