And the body is made to die, a
Very fine specimen, crafted with precision
Arranged into an organism, a
The thing about my garden is,
When all the flowers wilt,
I cannot find the strength to
Plant new ones.

Maybe we don't have to know;
What's there to come in the future.
And maybe ten years after everything
We'll stumble upon each other again,
laughing about how we broke each other's heart.
Love,
I crave to adore you when your at your worst

Why must we put a label on a picture that has nothing
but a fake smile and good lighting?
Because behind the raised eyebrows and the plastered grin on our face
Come softly now to the meadow
Come, in all your downy glory

We were once inseparableWe were once capableNothing came in-between Now we're only once upon a time
Whenever you're scaredJust know I'll always be hereWhenever you're aloneJust know I'll always be nearWhenever you're nervousJust know there's nothing to fearIf times go badDon't be sad
I flew from circus tents
into the great unknown Blue.
My feet were stained with the yellow
of the desert—
still wet.
It took one leap
for the white wings I keep folded away
