Clarity
What does time really mean?
A construct of man to create a plan
For a currency no one can redeem.
Time is an illusion
To fuel our confusion
To tell you when and how to dream.
Clarity
Dreams? What could they be?
I dream of you
You dream of me.
The nightmares are painting over visions so clean.
Chasing and haunting and enabling screams.
But I can't make a sound,
Just a whimper and a look down
To the ground
While the wall and my head I pound.
Can I really be losing what I have barely found?
Now I just can't seem to dream.
Clarity
What is status? Just a habit.
A number that you cant hit.
A title. A feeling. Comitment?
Or just words to paint a picture
Like the white picket fence casing in a bungalow.
The perfect home to let love flow.
it's all just an ideal
That sneaks its way into how we really feel.
Clouding forever with what-ifs and never,
Don't tell me I could do better.
Clarity
What makes it life?
Someone to hold you at night
When your exhausted from the fight
Of the day to day monotony.
Deep-rooted misogyny
Maybe I could use a lobotomy.
Shock value
My value in life
For future or a wife
Does not change from being seen
On pixelated portable screens.
I am not here to be an object of lust,
But I long for your taste, your touch.
Clarity.
I am the flower
You are the rain
Drench me in your essence
Take away this pain.
Fill up my lungs
Run through my veins
Your love is my poison
No detox can drain.
Clarity
Clear-cloudy-clear-cloudy-clear-cloudy-clear
Thoughts in my mind. Do you want to be here?
Insomnia sings to me by feeling you near
I can still here you whisper "I love you m'dear"
Make it stop. Make it leave.
I don't want to believe
In forever, in love, in all the above.
You re-taught me to feel and to let someone in.
But now you've stepped back and my numbness may win.
Clarity
Play the tape. let it ring
The score of our time, our love. Let it sing.
What would it say if it never stopped going?
If your rain would water the seeds I am growing?
Could we move past a family that showed me love was conditional
And grow further into a dynamic that won't be provisional?
No form, nor format, just words that might rhyme
About feelings I'm hiding just for this time.
If time is what's needed then let's pause the tape.
So thoughts can come surface while you hold our fate.
Clarity
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Maybe it can make our love grow stronger
But I don't know if I can hold on to time much longer.
Now that the tape is paused, I don't know if will we ever hear our song play again.
Not just romance, but the thought of loosing my best friend.
I breathe you in daily like my highest vice. But now we're a gamble and you hold the dice.
I know it's hard and I know it's rough, but I wish two dogs and me would just be enough.
Clarity
What does time really mean?
A construct of man to create a plan
For a currency no one can redeem.
Time is an illusion
To fuel our confusion
To tell you when and how to dream.
