Dear love,
I don't need you to fix me,
I don't need you to stick around until a better version of me shows up,
I am who I am even on my worst days
So don't fill me with your empty flatteries,
I can take all your rough words
Even if you're words come like a sword,
As long as it's honest I'll take it,
As long as you stay I'll keep you.

Sit still my friend
The world turns for you and me.
We yelled whatever,
And threw ourselves over concrete hills,
Smiled through toothless lips and swallowed blood,
I know what you know,
And we know nothing.

Leak out and tell me your secrets,
Include me in you plans
and give me the keys to your treasure chest,
I want to be in your inner circle,
Let your mysteries unfold around me.

Madness passes through blood
whether giving or receiving,
It all happens through wounds and bruises,
Madness is inherited through the bloodiest time of our life.

Like the wolves to the moon,
Like the Fish to the sea,
Like the birds to the trees,
I too will be me.

Sun kissed,

And still learning to walk on fire.

They called us "free",
Something about the way we moved without gravity,
They called us "young",
Not for out youth but for our ability to push the boundaries,
They called us "lovely",
For all the ways we let our hearts be known
They called us "fearless",
Because heights aren't as scary when you live on top of the world,
They called us "theirs",
For all the ways they chase us and try to be like us.
