Elucidating Questions

You shine so bright I can barely look, the fear of flying too close to the flame,

So far away, but so close.

Following my heart leads to one direction, it’s always that direction.

Going there could make it better or worse,

But I know this, I know this well,

I do love you, I have made mistakes,

And I will always support, as I can.

Something’s got to give, and it’s me.

Can’t stay trapped on this boat in the ocean,

The slowly moving lands we live on.

After the seeds are planted, destiny comes,

But without the right guidance, it’s just the same story,

Of the young used as the pawns of the old.

Taking some freedom, knowing the cost,

I need it like I need you,

Like the air I breathe.
