These past couple of moments have been beautifully ideal, I feel carefree talking to you, somehow that brings a lot into question, what's fake and what's real? Maybe it's due to my unchangeable inability to trust. Do we actually believe someone is being genuine without expecting anything in return from us? These insecurities, you didn't cause them. Still in my eyes you're a flawless, tainted gem. So perfect, your faults make you perfect. Only for a second do I believe that maybe we're worth it. But how do you turn a nonbeliever into a dreamer? A no-faither into a hoper? The blind into seers? The mute into preachers? The immobile into runners? The numb into healers? The obvious answer is you can't, No ungifted man can.
