All the intricate variables swirl within me, acting as a cause to overstep my thinking, as you race through my mind. Of course, love is blind, as it wears a blindfold to those glaring red flags you love to turn a blind eye to. To break on through, even as you hold the brakes on your personal drive — trust that on this journey, you will ultimately discover your moment of breakthrough. And when that drive turns a shade of blue, your own sadness leaves you feeling less than colourful. As I've likely tasted my full share of the Blues; where my existence hinges on where the wind last blew. As the growth of the next tree relies on how far the wind carries its seeds— _so how far have I scattered my own fruit?_ Even when there's a smile in your laugh; it can feel complementary, akin to sitcoms with a good laugh track. Yet, I often lose track of how many times I fake laugh. Seeming normal to people, is such a chore to have; always having to tidy up my act. Yet I navigate through these mundane conversations, laughing my way through normal conversations. __Please insert a fake laugh.__ But behind the laughs, I'm really just weird.
