go confidently in the direction of your wildest dreams,
make rainbows out of the darkness that's engulfing you.
put a hold on the negativity that swamps you, as you teach yourself
again, just how to breathe without stuttering and live without faltering.
right now it might seem like a big stretch, beyond imagination. keep reaching, princess

just don't be afraid of your dreams not quite fulfilling themselves,
there are plenty more adventures hiding just around the corner.
don't let the losers spit their discouraging poisons onto your
beautiful façade, let your happiness dribble onto theirs and spoil it just for them.
show them just how much better you are and continue to be, princess

it could be anyone's guess what happens to you next,
but make it as your own decision. don't let the world envelop you,
suffocate you and try to convince you that it is right. nothing is right
and when you see the stars set, on the horizon you'll be able to see
your dreams that are just about to flood over and become your realities, princess

make it worth it, little one.
you'll always be
my
*princess

slipping around quietly
drifting on autopilot
tongue's gone silent
full of anomalous wonderings
and clear stupidity

it's been said that it's true
but as if shouting at
a moonlit sky
would ever get anyone
*anywhere

The feeling of swimming underwater,

missing someone,

standing on top of a mountain.

The feeling of shedding tears over a movie,

excitment over a kiss,

running for no reason.

The feeling of jumping up and down over a song,

smiling to birds,

being lost after a drunken night out,

is what we should live for.
