Down
Lacey F Dream

 

Something happens to me -- I'm bare. My secret floats around
So swift, directly to my heart it tears.
Your words come out so misty -- I don't know where my eyes should drift
Towards you? Towards them? or over there?
My feet I have come to learn lots about.
I notice my split ends much more quickly now.
Tears don't meet my face for long --
straight to the ground they have learned to fall.
I want to go crazy,
I want to give up,
Pull out my hair and throw out my cup
It holds all my innocence in the present tense
That's what I can do!
I can build up a fence.
They cant climb over and neither can you,
The soul on the inside is too confusing for you.
You will see me some days and I will smile at you,
I don't want to let you in-- I don't want to disappoint you.
I'll try to walk on and forget you were there,
Even though I want to look back,
To love, hug, and care.
