The simplicity I'm searching for Hides beneath my fingernails Occupies the dark spaces I refuse to frequent Consumes the sweet fumes I forget to swallow
I've been told I overthink things It has never been about mountains or molehills I always see land big enough for shelter I do not need reasons This is what worries me I hesitate all the time Then I think I know Then I know I know Then I see you in public and you're laughing And I can't tell if you're laughing at me So I smile Not because I want to But because I think you want me to And suddenly I don't know anymore But I wonder if everyone else knows Or if you know Then I'm back beneath the mountain Or the molehill And I don't give a **** about geomorphology I just want to see you walk to the highest peak and shout your name And watch the echos vibrate off my chest This is what worries me most
What I need Is the courage to say exactly what I intend Believe I already own this certainty Live within the in between
