Perhaps

If you told me everything
All the secrets of who you are
Would I run away?
Would I crumble?
Would I spend the remainder of my life
In the corner of a plain room with no sharp objects?
Perhaps
Perhaps, I guess, is enough reason to remain elusive

I wish I were as strong as you

  • We're all strong. I Got Shit, what can be done but reflect truth in depth and carry Satan back from insanity? What a fucked up world, gotta keep working at building and guarding it.
  • I was wish I was as strong as the memories of YOU....I wish I could forget YOU...But you are more powerful than memories....YOU transcend time and space....YOU are ME and I am YOU.....
    I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun.....
    I wanna race..with the sundown..I want a last breath..I don't let out...

    I am tired; my heart is
    sick and sad. From where
    the sun stands I will fight
    no more forever."

    You are yours.

    I am mine.

    If we're lucky, we are ours.

    I guess we're as fortunate as we are, in whatever moment we choose to acknowledge it.

    Maybe there are times to take that, embrace it, and just live life from that realization?

    "Perhaps" can be quite the propellant, vs a muzzle or restraint.
