i can:
flip a switch
just for you;
sometimes i do,
forget how to
flip a switch;
one day it's on,
then it's off,
and i am gone.
i get lost
when in love;
lose myself
to some kind of
dark energy
taking hold of me;
flip it off
then i am free.
something inside
tugging away,
causing me
to toss and sway -
with so many
wordly distractions,
and so many
wild interactions;
with such embrace
and so much joy,
we have no reason
to set decoys.
you fell in love,
it was with me;
why can it be so
hard to see?
flip a switch
until it's habit
give me patience;
i'll give you practice.
don't look away,
and i will not
look away
like i was taught.
you have me,
battles won;
no one else
can overcome.
flip a switch,
i will do.
flip a switch,
for me and you.
