stumble

(2003)

 

this confusion is

crippling my mind

is

ever so slightly, breaking my heart

is

making me emotional and

making me want to cry

all the time

so I

grip unto my sanity

letting go of my security

so I

doubt my responseability

want to disown my accountability

and then

love her more than I can stand

miss her more than I can take

want to

never leave her

never wake alone

and

lavish upon her

love and care

but also

I dont want to leave my home

the friends I've know

my private sanctuary

my walled castle keep

I need to

see

I need to weep

for

my friends

my home

my love

my life

lost and forgotten

- maybe -

or just a new beginning,

and then

tomorrow and tomorrow,

and then

I'll know.
