True love

True love.

Love that's true.

Love you know

in your heart

is you and another person.

 

I guess I like to think I'm in love

I never really know.

I say I am to little kids who ask because I want to be confident!

I want to have my life locked down.

I want to know who I'm going to marry and if we're going to have kids

and what those kids will be like.

 

I just want to know if it's true love or just my delirious fantasies.

Hawaii?

I want to go.

I want to go... with you.

How long is that going to last?

If one depressive episode washes my life away

and I hit send and stop caring and wreck my life

there's no control z.

If I lose you I'd lose myself

and I believe I can get over anything

but I'd have to write you out of my heart and out of my brain

and out of my life 

and it would take forever.

A lot of songs

a lot of hate

a lot of sad.

 

What if I fall out of love?

What if I was never really in it?

What if I can't fall in love because I can't love myself?

I've spent my whole life trying.

What if I keep failing? Over and over?

Who's gonna love me then?

 

What happens when you realize you deserve the best

and I'm not it?

 

What happens if I'm lying to myself?

    Festival

    Long day

    past where morning sun shines and into the dark huskiness of night

    fluorescent lights beating down 

    then flickering off

    a fanfare

    a reflection

    a redemption

    Instincts

    Some things are just instinct

    like when I just ran to you

    as soon as I saw you

    and hugged you for -

    oh yeah -

    the first time

    very very platonic of course

    you're my big brother.

    Flying solo

    Your solo is like sun shining through the clouds in my heart

    it's like a platonic ballad

    it's like you are playing

    through first loves

    and forbidden loves

    and grass in the summer

    and crunchy chips
