Air
As I feel the cool night breeze slowly touch my skin
I allow it to embrace everything that I could not hold in
I feel the cool touch of your world
It calms my every nerve
I don’t look to be saved
I don’t need to be pushed away
So when I feel like the air has become stale
I wish I could somehow lift it up
And bring it along, it’s so frail
I don’t want to crack the lining
The lining that I have worked to preserve
Like an unkempt shirt I feel the seams begin to tear
And as I’m holding on to the left over pieces
I wish I could feel that same night air
That air that cleanses everything
Makes you pure?
Make it alright
But still I’m uncertain, I’m still unsure
So as the window to my world is slowly broken out of
And I can escape to here once again
Where it all doesn’t matter
Can you fit in?
So when the time comes to return
I don’t want to go back
I don’t need to feel that lost
That lonely
That forlorn
