Reclaimed

Patience and grace
 There will be good days
 And when there aren't
 Your thoughts will make your hands
 Make things that make others take a stand
 But until then, please hold my hand
 And remember
 This too shall be reclaimed.
 It all starts with the weed between the paves
 Roots and time will move concrete and iron
 And ivy and water will loosen any mortar
 All that man has built will crumble down to silt
 And all of this will again be green space
 This too shall be reclaimed
 Fearless and brave
 Spaces should feel safe
 And when they don't
 Your mind will make your feet
 Make paths that play your distinctive beat
 But until then please sit by me
 And remember
 This too shall be reclaimed.
 It all starts with the weed between the paves
 Roots and time will move concrete and iron
 And ivy and water will loosen any mortar
 And all that man has built will crumble down to silt
 And all of this will again be green space
 This too shall be reclaimed
 This too shall be reclaimed
