Not an entirely reliable structure
No years of cultivated security
But I can tuck my life neatly inside
Almost any opportunity.
Waited for years.
I made my move
Two backpacks
And one suitcase
Surreal is all
I’ve felt so far
Aside from lost
In love and why.
Ask yourself a question
Without immediately
Volunteering the answer.
If you know enough to ask
Then you should know
That you don’t really know.

Not an entirely reliable structure
No years of cultivated security
But I can tuck my life neatly inside
Almost any opportunity.
Waited for years.
I made my move

Aside from lost
In love and why.
Ask yourself a question
Without immediately
Volunteering the answer.
If you know enough to ask
Then you should know
That you don’t really know.
Seattle, WA. It's about time I stay honest and unsure of myself.
