cingulomania: a strong desire to hold someone in your arms

You remind me of color.

Perhaps it's because,
Of your love for it,
And all the beauty,
It creates.

Or maybe it's because,
When I am around you,
Just like with colors,
The world seems so vibrant.

But I suspect the reason lies,
Within the fact that you,
Like color,
Are not what you claim to be.

Light's wavelengths come down,
And you absorb them,
Reflecting back everything else.

So you see,
You are not red.
You are everything but that.

And if you are color,
I am the cones in our eyes,
Interpreting you as what you reflect,
You are to the world.
Believing your facade to be true.

You’re born
You’re made
You’re brought
You’re you and you is....
I can’t define you
No one can
I can’t claim you kind
No one can
You’re you
Define you.
run through
Be dignified
You’re born
You’re made
You’re loved and brought.

Infamous one
On the road in the rain
So many in a rush to be in traffic
Putting others in danger over others well being
Reckless driving doesn't get you anywhere faster

Infamous one
A dream that makes sense
Others tell you it's crazy
A lonely life separate path
The quiet one in a loud crowd
Plotting goals trying to achieve greatness
Never talking about others mind my own
Mind my business keep to myself
Others talk bad when they've done worse
Different from the rest aim to be the best

in my small town
last names mean everything & being a good kid means nothing
perhaps that's why this town is so ******

Be happy for the moon
