the truth

immersed in this ever waking second of fate

you ask me to stay

i walk away

but as my feet touch the floor i know im still wanting you

i want this embrace

i want this taste

i want all that and more

leaving makes the pain go away

shelter my thoughts

words as they drop

out of my mouth

cant depend on your righteous eyes

with all this wonderful emotion

is it just lies

can i look in your eyes

truth follows me

beaconing my name

you want me all the same

you want me for who i can be

not who i am

make me take hold of the truth

embrace the potential i have

but choose stubbornly to ignore
