Being in your twenties
Doesn't mean that it's too late to completely start over
I know it seems like your twenties are designed for the built
A steady progression of acquiring better and more
I know what seems like the most important thing in the World
Is to build a picture of mind's eye comforts
The way you have it "together"
The things the World would look at and approve of
The things you can think about
To soothe yourself out of a panic attack
But your twenties are about unlearning, too
Stripping away lukewarm loves
And work you don't thrive doing
And friends you've outgrown
And limiting ideas you've been leaning on to guide you
You're making room for your actual life to begin
Most people stumble in their twenties
Because they've spent their lives anticipating them
They've lived for this point – When happiness can ensue
But the most unhappy people
Are often the ones with the pretty nice flats
And the decent amount of friends
And the good-enough job
In the fields they're at least somewhat interested in
Because they've spent their lives building ideas
Rather than learning how to feel
Your twenties are about undoing as much as they are anything else
Choosing new
Deciding otherwise
Shedding layers that have muddied your idea of who you think you are
This is the kind of scary magic you want
The kind that leads you into the beautiful unknown
So, listen when I tell you
That if there's something about yourself and your life
That you want to change
And you have the opportunity to do it now:
It's not too late
It's not too late when you're in your twenties
Doesn't mean that it's too late to completely start over
I know it seems like your twenties are designed for the built
A steady progression of acquiring better and more
I know what seems like the most important thing in the World
Is to build a picture of mind's eye comforts
The way you have it "together"
The things the World would look at and approve of
The things you can think about
To soothe yourself out of a panic attack
But your twenties are about unlearning, too
Stripping away lukewarm loves
And work you don't thrive doing
And friends you've outgrown
And limiting ideas you've been leaning on to guide you
You're making room for your actual life to begin
Most people stumble in their twenties
Because they've spent their lives anticipating them
They've lived for this point – When happiness can ensue
