I got a sense of calmness when I saw your face.
Reminded me of a weeping willow,
Weeping
Into a river
You could cry me a river
I would do everything I could
To drown in it,
Tie a brick to my foot.
Somewhere in between your reality and mine
Branches reaching out but never quite touching.
What’s it like?
Living in the real world,
Because I don’t live in the real world,
Never really been interested in taking part
In reality.
Not until I saw you,
Saw the only way to you was to
Pull myself out of my mind and be whole,
But when I do… oh my god my bones…
They come alive send signals to my soul,
Feels like poision in my veins
My legs shake, my eyes roll
I fall back into my head,
No way to you and our connection is dead.
What’s it like?
Being awake, knowing your way
Planning your next step, rarely forget.
Because I’m always sleeping.
Always day dreaming
Don’t know what it’s like to
Understand how I’m feeling
Don’t know how to stop vomiting adrenalin
When I hear my name, or my name, or my name.
I’ve searched every part of my mind,
Trying to find answers and
All I can figure out is that we are infinant,
We are cell, we are planet, we are universe
And that is what my knowledge consists of.
The only other thing I find in there
are people, characters and they are everywhere.
I see pieces of their faces,
Try to fit them together like puzzle pieces and
Hey, that one kind of looks like you
Except his eyes are brown, and yours are blue
And he speaks to me.
Why don’t you speak to me?
Is it because you’re too afraid of my reality,
Or am I too afraid of yours?
You’ve glimpsed into my head a few times before.
What’s it like?
Seeing clearly, thinking clearly.
Because to me, everything is just fuzzy,
Like particles trying to piece together
My imagination into a breathing figure.
The truth is, you think I’m crazy.
Huh, figures.
What’s it like?
Being sane?
As if even you know.
Is your reality even reality?
Is anyone’s?
