Following my heart is never the easy part of any journey I take on
Following my heart means leaving him behind
Following my heart takes away any certainty I thought I might of had
It's always where I need to be, but hardly every where I go
I never follow like I know I should
It already took me a long time in the beginning to figure this out
I feel like a coward, a queen who dropped her crown in the dark
It's hidden beneath me at the bottom
Skimming this lonely wave of what I call the floor
I can't pick it up, because if I do
If I do, I will run, and I will keep running, and no one will stop me
No one can stop me, and that scares me
It also amazes me, and makes me realize how powerful I actually am
I used to be afraid to use the word 'power'
But I am starting to realize that power is not a rotting principle
It is the way it can be used, and it has been given a bad name
I want to change that, as I continue to change myself
I am aiming past the stars, because I know there is magic out there
I know there are secrets out there
Secrets that I have full possession of
If I allow myself to stand the **** up
Open my eyes, and breath in the unknown
I am everything, and nothing all in the same
Knowledge beyond my own years, because I know they don't exist
I have done this before, so what the hell is stopping me now?
