My Life.

I live a great life for I love life.

To me it's simply a stage;
a journey that I must overcome;
being trapped in a wide open cage.
A life I shouldn't have to outrun.

My life is one to embrace;
full of fears that I must face,
but why must I face them alone?
For fear in the mind
is a kingdom to be overthrown.

What happens when you try looking forward

but all you see is your past?

You keep running from what you left behind,

but it's impossible when its right there in front of you.

You reach out but its cold

you try to look at the bigger picture

but there are cracks... in this mirror

All you see in front of you are the things you left behind

you see a broken face in a broken mirror

almost impossible to put together

if you [let it crash and shatter]

then it'll hurt just picking up the pieces

so turn around and face your problems

to preserve what really matters.

L--- at first sight...?

Your eyes on me.

Hand on my knee.

My heart flutters...

my mouth stutters.

I am afraid to speak.

I have reached the peak.

It is your heart I seek.
