thank YOU.

I just want to run free 

And far from the novacane laced words spoken like a rhythmic gymnastics routine meant for Nationals

I want to be the one to change green into red and green into blue for you 

I want you to be the moon in my sky of tossled dreams

You make me want to love with my whole heart, my whole self as a human being

You make me want to better myself, my world and my existence.

You have cleared the dust off the empty shed and turned it into a home 

The light is much brighter with you around

You refresh and awaken my soul. 

Thank you.

Perspective

Walking down the terrace of rose petals, fireflies and frozen butterfly wings 

I was blinded by the light of my own creation

Living a fabricated fairy tale it was time to retreat 

And be true to myself, so I fell back down

Here I lay, surrounded by my own shadows

Nothing seems to reflect the truth better than pitch black darkness 

I was lost in my own world, believing what I wanted to see was real

When you gave me coal, I turned them into doughnuts 

I was good at lifting myself up, because you never could

It's hard to say you're wrong when you're living in it

But it's so easy to see when you have something this good

It puts the past to shame, like it didn't even happen

I don't have to pretend, I don't have to defend 

Nothing compares to what I have now

When were together it's like two best friends hanging out

The curtains are pulled, we are ourselves there is no pretending

You are just you and I am just me, we fit together so perfectly 

I couldn't imagine a love like this

It goes beyond the surface way below the deepest depths 

We love each other immensely, intensely 

We don't take each other for granted

We listen to each other, and let each other be 

And that, fits perfectly in my idea book of you and me

Static

Sometimes I'm my own worst enemy

Sometimes I can't get away from me

In the silence and stillness of my picture

I'm running wild in that moment; uncomfortably 

There are days when I can't escape myself, and those days I just wanna run

I wonder if it's a household issue-

Of wanting to lose oneself 

I feel locked within the confinements of my mind; there's only one way in and no way out. 

This isn't my kind of party nor my cup of tea. I just wanna be and feel free.

I am my own project

Always watching waiting learning 

Taking chances, expanding my heart 

Teaching it to stretch and fold for everyone

But I mustn't forget to save room in my heart for myself & my mind.
