Even as I freeze.
I don't drop to my knees,
The cuts from the knives
The self inflicted disease,
The unspoken words
eyes filled with tears,
closed mind,
closed blinds,
closed ears.
But as the waking leaves
curl towards new light,
the blanket opens the horizon
like a million glorious stars,
glistening the dew on the leaves
of the grass over the hill.
His consciousness had awoken,
enlightened yet frightened by the past,
remembering the pain and resent.
But I can't do this just yet
I can't be broken,
I don't want to be hurt anymore
I have nothing to give,
but I have everything to give.
Only in time will I give you my all,
I'll fall, deeper than I've fallen before.
Like the precipice wasn't the problem -
just the sheer drop below, into an ocean
of love potions
To swim with the dolphins, and to rise above the surface of the solitude.
To be able to not drown in a sea of emotion
because your eyes alone are the ocean,
and I was just a wave skipping by.
I've found the trail I want to follow
and even if I tell myself I have nothing
to give,
I know I have every single piece to give
it's just,
I've only just collected the pieces.
So please,
if I give you my all
don't shatter me, it took too long
for me to rebuild myself.
The truth is,
I want to fall deeper than I've ever fallen
I want to dive into your eyes,
to get lost at sea,
to get a call from you,
For you to say you're missing me.
