I was told to do something different
Outside of comfort zone,
Far from the hemispheres
Where my eyes and keen might have grown  
Like the roots of lavender ruffled petals
Swinging in the breeze of morning snow
A sigh of cascading pollen and softened gestures
To elevate the weight burrowed within my marrow
Such a captivating complexion of afternoon glow
If only my permanence wasn’t as easy to replace
Please try, if only the hushed murmurs snuck behind
Gloved hands and concrete walls
I live in a world where reality sees me through
The passing of each moment meant to portray
The fact that we all are wandering astray
Born in a minute and live to die the next
Believing we know which way is right,
Which tree leans to the left,
How can I possibly erase all the ****
Which messes with my head
The intricate distractions I choose
To hold hands with and call my best friend
Why is a constant battle to argue
Upon thresholds of annihilated truths?
