Re-focusing from negative to positive

A thousand pardons for being caught up in negativity lately
And taking you with me on the ride
I found myself spiraling, diving deeper into anger, frustration
Incredulousness (is that a word?)
The more I looked, the more I found
Until it was overwhelming
How much it takes to pour your soul onto canvas
Then have them reach in, grab it
And call it their own

It's so easy to spiral if I'm not careful
But that's not where I want to live
So I'm resetting, refocusing
Looking upward and outward
At all the beauty
And beautiful people
Out there in the world
