You
are the one I love
when everything isn't perfect

And nothing's ever perfect

Yours
is the love I need
because looking for what I wanted was a mechanical defensive front
and it hasn't worked for years
I feel awakened
the me I was then was all pretend

Suspended in mid air

Waiting to fall
straight into the sound and arms of something or someone meta-great
Into the realm of transcending hypnotism
so compelling that even apart we breathe alike

My wits are no longer at end
my self is reflected in the mirror of your words
I like what I read
It sets me free

You
are the one I love
when everything isn't perfect

And nothing's ever perfect
