The things I didn't know.
The things that wouldn't show.
The things I couldn't find.
The things my brain couldn't hear.

I live in fear that I will do something stupid.
I live in fear that my heart won't love what I did.
I live in fear that I will ***** it all over.
I live in fear that I will dig too deep.

My brain and heart almost never coincide.
My brain and heart act like the communication is fried.
My brain and heart don't live hand in hand.
My brain and heart don't have the control panel manned.

But then I realized my brain had it backwards.
But then I realized I wasn't ever lost.
But then I realized I'd always seen it wrong.
But then I realized it was there all along.

Now what I see is something I know.
Now what I see is clear like a glass.
Now what I see is a feel my heart can't shove.
Now what I see is what I love.
