Calm Steady Poem by Jesse Tampa

You came into my life on four twenty four
Before I had you with me it was hard to leave my door
You are with me and inside my system now
So there are no more questions of how

With a little bit of fury I get you inside
My brain and heart together no longer have to hide
I am so in tune with life, a yawn with my palm
A few minutes later, I feel oh so calm

I can go to places and see people that I love
I can breath and talk with the peace of a dove
How long can I have you in my life? In you I can’t rely
I have to find a better system, I have to be a better guy
