You are what I need
And everything I do
I’ll hold your hand
Let’s just see this through

All that I know
Is nothing without you
Your mind is so beautiful
And your heart is true

Simple things mean everything
That’s why I need you
You leave me hopeful
In everything we do

You tell me all of your truths.
You now simply understand mine.
I want to tell you what you are to me.
I can’t let myself feel that pain again.

Free as as bird without a cage.
We both are happier than ever before.
The truth or simply a moment of truth.
Don’t get lost or stuck without a hand.

The snow starts to melt outside.
I think about you and I together.
My realizations start to come through.
When can I ever tell you?

Travel where you must
Choose your destinations wisely
Take the steps to get there
Don’t immerse yourself without knowledge

Take a chance and travel
Not everything will work out
Everything will be an adventure
Set your priorities straight and go

Travel to a new place
Eat, sleep, and live in the culture
Experience something more than once
Allow things to settle and grow

I told you not to believe me.
I told you that I am not simple.
I told you I don’t know my “self”.
I told you that you were not right.

You don’t seem to understand it.
You desperately want to know it.
You can’t see right through me.
You need time to truly understand me.

I want you to know me.
I don’t want you to control me.
I can almost see where it might go.
I feel for what the future will bestow.

A friend, a best friend, a lover?
You can’t choose without an answer.
I lean and lean harder without thought.
I need like there’s no tomorrow.

Will this go somewhere or will this end?
Someone I must choose without choice.
I can’t do it all by myself, not now.
I need time to discover and to learn.

Why be so understanding?
Making it easier, but making it harder.
Be here and so will I.
I know what I want, but not what I need.

She wants to touch me.
I want to touch her back.
If only for a moment.
Lost in the moment of moments.

She doesn’t understand my needs.
I want to stay, but I have to go.
She needs me there, but I must stay here.
This may never end.

She thinks she knows herself.
Only completely lost in herself.
Not thinking of the consequences.
It is over and it has just began.

Cocking their guns to fight.
Taking pride in ownership and money.
Stepping on the small, smaller, and smallest.
Never stopping to see the truth.

Shitting where they sleep.
Eating where they shit.
Working where they eat.
Sleeping where they work.

He wants answers to “self”.
He lacks knowledge of “self”.
He forces upon others his “self”.
He draws from his “self”.

She beats her “self”.
She doesn’t control her “self”.
She lacks a “self”.
She steals from her “self”.

I am not myself.
I don’t control myself.
I have lost myself.
I knew myself.

Her hands are like blood.
Sending nutrients through my body.
My heart depends on them to beat.
Everything stops and starts, stops and starts.

Her lips are like the sun.
Bright and cheery without prejudice.
Warming the deepest parts of my soul.
Burning and reddening my skin.

Her “self” is like a rainbow.
Colours stretching from never ending ends.
Only showing as it rains and pours.
Life without it seems dark and dull.

My love never lets me down.
I know its always there for me.
Always truthful and transparent.
Love is what destroys me.

My love hurts me because it has to.
I feel pain like no other.
Connections so deep and true.
Love is what gives me hope.

My love helps me through the pain.
Warm, strong, and wise.
An unstoppable force to be reckoned with.
Love is what makes me.
