Balance
What a funny word
Walking on a tight rope hoping to stay in
Balance
Striving
Humans, the antonym of balance
Too many, too much pleasure,
too much

If he isnt fully there for you
are the fragments of what you do have worth keeping?
if your not fully there for guys then are you worth holding onto?
being torn between what you want and what you know you deserve

lost
frustrated
drowning with desperation to grab onto something thats real and will help you to float.

why is it so hard to meet the right guy
someone worth my while.
maybe it is because my fear holds me from fully submerging

each additional break
calcifies the shell
even thicker and thicker  
until one day
it will be unbreakable.

I am me

I was meant to breathe the meaning I see
I stem my own creativity
two eyes not four
No need to keep myself in check
This is Freedom

No ventriloquism
I'm not a circus animal
Now only yes comes out of these lips
the lips you once loved
the lips you lit up

Now I say yes
Yes to looking ******
Yes to eating that extra piece
Yes to laying in bed all day
Yes to loosing myself
Yes to wearing that

Loosing my phone for days never felt to liberating
With you there was checking in
I checked out early from the hotel
and burned it down
Im on a road trip and I'm never coming back

Loving myself is good enough for me
I am my best match
I am my most intimate lover
I am my funniest comedian
I am my most interesting date

I have friends
I have flings
I have me
I have life
Limitless boundaries all for me

— The End —
