Why can't you comprehend
The words even my dog can understand

Pin me down
Observe my canyons and rivers
Valleys of motion
Mountains of strength
Map me out
From head to toe, 69.5 inches of
Pure insecurity
Plot me
Graph me
Reduce me
To something I both am and am not

If we were only friends with perfect people
Our lives would be pretty freaking lonely

Who is this "you"
I keep writing
Pouring
Talking to.

If you don't like me just say so

Fresh indigo streaks of sky
Color the wind as you say goodbye

The bravest thing a person can do
Is love another
Even when you know they won't last
