that's the thing about pain,
it demands to be felt.

~okay~

life is a beautiful symphony,
but mine is lacking in a steady rhythm.
a flowing melody ceases to exist,
creating nothing but noise,
because the musical components can't seem to coincide here.

i care about you too.

someone to listen
and someone to care
they seem to glisten
these thoughts that i bear
shining so brightly inside my head
i sometimes wish to be dead

you seemed to listen
and you seemed to care
you understood the thoughts that i bear
you held me tightly through all the pain
and promised to be by my side

up here, it's calm.
up here, i feel larger than life.
up here, everything will be just fine.
up here, i feel real.
up here, gives perspective.
up here, i experience the impossible.
up here, life is minuscule.
up here, the horizon is endless.

when i fly, when i soar,

over, around, and through the clouds.

a place in the clouds,
for me and my self.
a chance to fly,
a chance to soar.
a place in the clouds,
for me and my thoughts.
a chance to see.
a chance to be,

up here in the clouds.

in this moment i need a hug.
in this moment i want to see the stars.
in this moment i can feel tears.
in this moment i feel oddly relaxed.
in this moment i don't know what i'm feeling.
in this moment...
