I have never seen a shell like yours
The smooth shine invites sunlight that dances on your home
Our shells side by side
Split image souls that Rorschach couldn't quiet duplicate
We talk from the windows of our domains
The beaming similarities of a feeling I've never had
I split this affection in half and let you have your share
I throw my heart over and it doesn't quite reach you
The feeling of unknown
I am cautious of shallow water
How easy it is to doubt survival
How rejuvenating it is to hear your heart
My shell won't limit my direction towards you
I will catapult into the unknown feeling bare
Unlimiting actions
We are forever here

What is this feeling
Of longing for
Your presence
And the safety that comes with it

What is this feeling
Of wanting
Everything and nothing
All at once

What the actual ****
Am I doing
Writing out how I feel
When I'm too afraid to tell you honestly

Why do I
Fear the risks
And hide myself
Despite knowing how much I feel?

What if I start the mission though
I go somewhere I never knew
I take a risk
I take a chance
I forget my fears and let myself dance
But I can't go through
I fear it's fate
I stay on this side of the closing gate

A quick refreshing dip
You float with utmost buoyancy

But with repeated trip
And growing sense of poignancy

Panic takes it's hold
Logic must be strewn aside

Bravely plunge the bold
To sink before they've died

So choices made light
Can end up more deep

As those figured right
Make for much peaceful sleep

Either way gives rest
But no stories are told

By those thinking best
When they have gotten old
