we are the reason that the other can't breathe
people, a person, is the most beautiful of things
I am the fresh breeze while you shift beneath me
and the world looks brighter in another's heart
there's something about waking up not alone
that cheers your soul and stirs it
You can't change, but you are, aren't you?
maybe we just don't show each other
but we did, we did change, we boil within our hearts
and toss about, vaporizing the love we feel for each other
because we're too scared to pour it,
maybe people are so lonely because we burn so bright
we're scared to scald our neighbors,
we think we're too hot for them, we'll char their skin,
but we won't- their heart is as hot as ours
I am a coal who needs company or else I will die out
the soft red light from within me fades
until someone shows me theirs.
