mud's okay too...

it was a great moment....
and a scary moment all at once.

we're doin' something nice for him.
tryin' to make him feel worthwhile and
talented....
he is.
i'm not makin' it up.
but he can't see it.
so tryin' to put it in front of him.
he catches glimmers.

it should have been nothing but a good moment.
and it was filled with tremendous good.

but there's that hesitation in the back.
things good have a way of turnin' sour here
and i just don't want to watch one more
heartbreak.

that's haunting me in the back of my head.

i sit back and think about it.
i guess it doesn't matter.
sour seems to be part of his journey.
and i obviously don't understand his journey.
i just need to try to offer the good....
and know that it's okay if the good lands
in the mud.

cause maybe once you let good out....
even if it lands in the mud....it's still out
there somewhere.

maybe it's just lettin' the good out...
maybe that's all you can do.

maybe i need to learn to accept mud along the
way without making judgment calls.

man......
i wonder if i'll ever get any of this down.....
