8/24/2017 I rise That last interaction wasnt quite what i asked for Not sure how she feels or why I said that to her That one thing we all seek I try to give freely My body screams i see you Do you see me? I rise My heart stings from the things i cant do The ones that I loved and couldnt hold onto The paths that i saw and chose not to pursue The vague nameless shadow that clouds my view I rise, I rise I still see, im still seen My heart still beats I know my love language I speak it with me There are still secrets I frantically seek Knowledge is the spark that catches me Depression is no match for connections and facts The key to my heart is curiosity I rise
