Inner Child
I lie in the grass with you,
and you point to the sky like we used to do.
"That cloud looks like a fish," you say,
and I stare at you in quiet amazement.
How could they not love you?
Your beautiful brown hair—
they cut it short all those years,
trying to shape you, contain you.
You smile, crooked teeth glinting, so cheesy,
and I remember: we were happiest
when we ran away,
just you and I, lost in our thoughts.
I stare back at the sky and point.
"And that," I murmur.
It makes you giggle. ...

A walk in the woods
As I walk in the forest of my mind
I feel the breeze sending shivers to the core
The smell of flowers not yet picked
Like potential never known
The path ahead is worn and familiar
I’ve been down this road before.
Dying trees all around
dreams that will never be known
Sinister Shadows in the distance
Like thoughts I dare not go
Paths not taken grown over with brush
Places I dare not go
I think to myself
Is this the time I go?
The fear of the unknown
shakes me to the core
I continue down the path well known...
I feel the breeze sending shivers to the core
The smell of flowers not yet picked
Like potential never known
The path ahead is worn and familiar
I’ve been down this road before.
Dying trees all around
dreams that will never be known
Sinister Shadows in the distance
Like thoughts I dare not go
Paths not taken grown over with brush
Places I dare not go
I think to myself
Is this the time I go?
The fear of the unknown
shakes me to the core
I continue down the path well known...

Close your eyes
Forget the smoke
Breathe in fresh air
Girl tell me
How did we get there?
Rain dancing over your hood
Bricks scrape your back
Got your music on blast
They forgot your name
But your words are not mud
Your strength is gilded by blood
You’re seeking guidance in stars
But those stars explode
Believe me when I speak
It’s the beauty in the aftermath
That shapes your bones
Those stars are just one in a million
Destined to end
When there’s nothing left to grasp ...
Forget the smoke
Breathe in fresh air
Girl tell me
How did we get there?
Rain dancing over your hood
Bricks scrape your back
Got your music on blast
They forgot your name
But your words are not mud
Your strength is gilded by blood
You’re seeking guidance in stars
But those stars explode
Believe me when I speak
It’s the beauty in the aftermath
That shapes your bones
Those stars are just one in a million
Destined to end
When there’s nothing left to grasp ...
