Stretch Your Mind

My mind has been stretched in so many directions

By surviving your truth and all your rejections

I can now see what’s in all our reflections

As we’ve torn down the walls to our deepest connections

What you said was hurtful, but I love you all the same

I know that you are right and that this is not a game

My mind has been opened to reflect modern-day

It really doesn’t matter what they do or what they say

This is what we’ve got, and we will choose where we lay

Life is so much simpler when we’re not in our own way

What they said was hurtful, but I love them all the same

I know that I am right and that this is not a game

My heart has been blessed to make room for so much more

I’ve surely changed because I feel it in my core

High above the clouds I am free, and I will soar

No overspill, just so much more I can adore

What I said was painful, but I love you all the same

I know that we are right and that this is not a game

My heart has been touched by your tough armoured soul

You gave me what I needed, and I am now whole

Returning the favour is my committed goal

Allowing us both to complete our roles

What was said was painful, but I love you all the same

I know that all is right and that this is not a game
