so many people are in love and
not together

It must be lonely
To be the pearl of the ocean
To be the gaping mouth of the sea

Only drowning men may meet you.

I need more reason
I need more rhyme
I need more trophies to validate time

I need more money
I need more school
I need more people to tell me what's cool

I need more power
I need more laws
I need more effect to satisfy cause

So apparently:

I need more love
I need more vision
For the Peaks I needed and the reasons I didn't
Talking about living in a world of constant 'more' and 'not good enough'... when do we learn to live for us, and not for the critics

Squeak, squeak, squeak...
The squirrel's tail bounds—
My heart pounds—
Where, in hiding, its mate?
Of course, you too have watched enthralled two squirrels chasing each other up and down a mango tree as you sit sipping hot tea on the steps of your home. You find your heart squeaking as it pounds in your chest!

I listen to my gut instinct, but it tells me a lot.
I need to hear your words, before my insides rot!
A snapshot of the mind of a devout insomniac, ... Paranoia rhymes too.
