Don't worry yourself
think of the exploring you'll do alone
no one to drag you down
alone
alone
the word rings around my head
the most depressing decibel I ever heard.
No one to drag you down because
you have SUCH an imagination
how could this POSSIBLY be a bad thing
look in the dictionary under independant; you're the definition.
definition however
finds no hold in a mind made only of galaxies
the expanse is endless
thought can stretch so thin
I lose the beginning of an idea into space
and end up floating in the quiet vacuum of my head
I needed you
to be
the corners of my mind
a framework
to attach my grandiose ideas and give them meaning
to know
that I am more than just synapses
firing at random into the dark
that I am a physical being.
I needed you to hinge me to reality,
because otherwise
I am just stardust and matter
trapped in a skull.
