just enough


Those three make up the belt
Follow my finger to Polaris
I remember just enough to impress
my children in the inky dark

A card to celebrate our day
My hand reaches for yours
I do just enough to keep
the embers of our fire glowing

Deadline rushing into my present
Late nights are not the exception
I finish just enough to remain
employed to subsidize my dreams

Old sins pay another visit
Plagued with my own guilt
I fall just enough to stay
Cursed by Adam's poor choices

Doors of my heart gladly flung wide
Impassioned plea to live within me
I did just enough to live
in eternal bliss with you
