Dearest

Pushing the limit

of what I can create

in a blank state

Blanket statements

litter the streets that connect

your brain to your spine

Funny how all of the sudden

It's coming out in threes

it's usually longer when it doesn't have to be

A rhythm so innate

It had to be studied

Still losing sight of the great things in life

Roll up a leaf

Soak in the trees

Feel the natural beauty

A manifesto

A dedication wholly

an unnecessary tether

A free mind

thinks and bends

sways to those rhythms in your head

Likes to intertwine

with that golden soul

you're storing so far away

Where did you go

You left to find yourself

I'll be holding in a hug

New perspective shattering news

old retrospective songs never lose

fall back into what you know

Comfortable discomfort

a privileged dissonance

drowned out by the roots, rocks, and beats

You need to escape

Spend less time trapped upstairs

lift your mind and spirit free

Be happy

Though life is too bitter to bear

Find something too good not to share

Walk through me

Let go of the physical

Watch the universe be

Not so deep down

I'm ever afraid to lose you

To watch you walk away

Still I won't pray

Still I won't stray

Still I feel gray
