The stars shine down on your face
like a million lights
telling me where to place
my hand
on yours
or my hand on his
just let me know where your love is
in the morning light
'cause you got me trapped in a box
afraid to go nowhere
can't find, i can't find a way out
i'll be moving backwards, a movin' back
so just come on, come on
find your way home
And I could be, you could be
my morning light
But I throw it away on cigarettes and boys
I could ho---ld the world
But I take another sip
Take another hit , let it in,
oh-- let you in
let you in
but ya gotta let me know
am i just a love you want to see
or a love you want to love
tell me--oh tell me
am i a morning girl
or just a late night good time
'cause you got me trapped in a box
afraid to go nowhere
can't find, i can't find a way out
i'll be moving backwards, a movin' back
so just come on, come on
find your way home
or let me find mine

Your fingers ran up and down my arms
like ants skittering back to their home
i felt a prickle, a chill
i couldn't tell if i wanted to be held
to run along your surface so fast,
you could never catch up
or if i wanted to be crushed under the weight of your shoe

You wish the world looked the same
As it did through those glasses
You try to make wishes off of
mascara clumped eye lashes
But then we wake up to find that our dreams are not real
what is home? what is home?
Because home is not where my heart is with yours
Because my heart is with the stars in the sky
but i'm not afraid of heights
i'm just afraid of falling
falling
falling
falling for you

Feeling torn down,
just waste on the floor,
is when I feel my safest,
because,
it’s these times
that I actually feel human.
Being stuck on the floor,
bare and sopping with tears,
let’s me know that I matter to myself

Take my head to the pillow
Drown me in my sleep
She said
Grow me up
Grow me down
But blindfold yourself
Then look all around
The clock is reaching for me
Dragging me along
I feel so unsteady
She said
Please make me feel tall
So take me home
Unravel me, seep into my bones
Just smother me in time
Weave your words into mine
Hands soft spoken
she said
mind loud to the touch
Take your sorrows
and give it to my dreams
she said
please don't worry, even though i'm cracking at the seams
just give me your love and i'll give you mine
i'm breaking down, crumbling up
i thought i told you i was fine
she said
time is gone

You can't make a wish off of a mascara clumped eyelash.
Using tears and chocolate to make up for the absence of people in your life.
You are woven into your bed, watching inspirational Netflix movies.
Feeling welcome into the arms of every teen angst indie film.
It ends.
You’re alone.
You take a sip of the 5 day old room temperature water
Sitting on your bed stand
Up comes a ring of wood with the cup.
Rub your grease caked face.
Think about showering.
One more show.
Tomorrow you plan to run.
Eat healthy.
New life, new you.
Wake up, run 2 miles.
Think about becoming raw vegan and a marathon runner.
Go buy fruits and veggies.
How do people live without bread?
Let veggies go bad.
Too hung over to run the next day
Start again tomorrow.
Don’t start again tomorrow.
Go get fries and shake because you deserve it.
Determine you’re ok with becoming morbidly obese
To the point of immobility.
Open backpack.
See laptop.
Repeat.

Finding a balance between the reality I’ve built for myself, and the reality that is real, is the hardest thing that I have yet to do.
