we just want to get out of here
to run across the galaxy
skinning our knees on asteroids
dipping our toes in lakes of nebulae
playing ball with planets
flying through the universe

because we can't breath this oxygen the earth supplied us
because we ripped the chains
that held us to earth with our teeth
eating up the determination
that pulled on us to get us out out out
to finally go on adventures
to finally breath in the stars
to finally take a spaceship to another place
because we just want to get out of here

you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved you are loved

please don't forget it

the rain
just keeps on coming
and coming
and coming
and coming
taking away
the dirt
the grime
with buckets
and buckets of water

i just hope it takes away
some of my thoughts with it
leaving only flowers to grow in its place

we made eye contact through the mirror
as she slowly played with my hair behind me
she sighed, shaking her head slightly.

"you know? you just have to force yourself to do what you love."

you reminded me of honey
soft skin
sweet smile
my lips kissing yours
while the sunlight
cast us in a champagne sheen of gold
