THE BIG PICTURE
He said to focus on the big picture
He said to focus on the big picture
And he was big in all the ways that it mattered
But he seemed to want tinctures
Oils and potions for all his wounds
She wasn’t ready to be martyred
He said to focus on his factions
And his acts encompassed her worlds permissive
But he seemed to want domination
Dictates and opinions for all her personality
She wasn’t ready to be his submissive
Words and actions must align
The fly and picture must be one
All her troubles she must solve
A man not boy he must become
A man he did become
Her fears he put to rest
Her goals he did support
Yes, a man he did become
