Being, not existing as an entity
To witness and not to partake
Knowing without understanding
I thought that I trusted youBut yet, Everyday I still question youWhy oh why can't I ever just believe in youEven though you are usually right, I still have trouble believing in you. But really who are you? You are me. You are my brain. Sometimes
Eyes wide
The air was dry
The tension high
That living room became a place
Of surprise
Live like a lion.
Rummage up a roar.
Protect what is precious.
Hunt out of hunger
Love larger than life.
I don't know who I am except:
Borrowed atoms
Bad timing
And love
I don't know where I am except this moment
With a smoke in my hand,
My hair in the wind
I came from the moon-
A crater left in the wake
Of a girl who couldn't stay still
The changing faces of my father
Trying to find the daughter he carved-
Never content because he can't find me
Dear Dylan,
I am stronger
In body not mind
My own brain has gone blind
The days longer
than that of the dreams
of the redhead once wild
soon you will realize
Dear Everyone,
Though the lies of your mind may chain you
And judgments of society cage you
Stand up.
You are yours alone.
No one can own you.
You are the maker of your home.
Stand up
