Through The Crack
After years of being locked in the darkness
Away from the elements and sensations, in my own little world
You wander in and flash a brilliant show
Of what lies just beyond my door, on the other side
Slowly I follow you, back into the land of the living
Filled with all it's beautiful sights and sounds
**Too much time on my own
Tucked away from realities
I've tried your world before
It seems much safer to hide
I see you through a crack in my dusty window
And wonder if I'll ever learn how to make it
**On your side
Having it all flood back at once, is just too much for me
I know I should wade in the shallow end
But I want to plunge into the deep
I need to show you all I've been hiding
I need your blue ocean to wash away the pain
I don't know how to paint new memories
One at a time, living day to day
I need you to create a new picture for me
Something in your world I can call my own
To keep me from running away
**
Show me how to live in your world, how to slowly sip from your cup
Instead of taking it in too quickly, finding myself lost and drunk
Staggering back to my little doorway
That takes the crooked key
Back behind my dusty window
Where I watch you through the crack in my world
But you never see me
After years of being locked in the darkness
Away from the elements and sensations, in my own little world
You wander in and flash a brilliant show
Of what lies just beyond my door, on the other side
Slowly I follow you, back into the land of the living
Filled with all it's beautiful sights and sounds

But you never see me
Exercising her will to lose control...
she lets go
she lets go

It's kind of interesting... I'm moving into what I've cheerfully deemed 'Life #4'... and was going through some old papers yesterday. I wrote this in 1994... when I was just leaving 'Life #2' and embarking on 'Life #3'.....
I think the one coming up is going to kick ass....
I'm happy to say that at the onset of this new Life... I don't need someone to show me how to make it in 'their world'... I know now that I am strong... and not afraid of making a place in the world to call my own ....
