If I had known falling in love
Would be more terrifying
Than being alone
I may not have jumped in
Head first

Larger (53/1000)
Why wouldn’t you be enough for me?
Like This (52/1000)
I want to be loved like this forever
No matter who I’m with
I want to work like this forever
No matter what I’m doing
I want to dance like this forever
No matter who is watching
I want to live like this forever
In or out of this body bag
Opening Up (51/1000)
It must be a magic trick
Almost There (50/1000)
I am perfect, whole, and complete
And that feels like the truth
When I turn my analytics inward
I tear myself and you apart
Thank you for getting so close
That you turned me inside out
I needed to know
No matter what the villagers said
Or what you know or still don't know
That I was beautiful now
Because I spent too many years
With one who didn't love all of me
Premature (50/1000)
Not afraid to be first
I put my dripping heart into your hands
Is it getting heavy?
Bless the Day (49/1000)
They say character comes out most in a crisis
Well you got all my love, love, love
And I can’t have my sugar
I’ve been known to jump ship
For more stable ground
I’ve got enough vata to sail around the world
And your wind is blowing me in circles
So lie down now, sweet, sparkly, girl
Breathe
You’ve done all you could do today
All the universe wanted you to do
It will never be enough for you
But then, you don’t really know what you want, do you?
Devastated (48/1000)
How will I ever be a leader
Enslaved by my emotions?
I want the drama
But I don’t want it rocking my boat
I’m content to watch it
Like a landscape
From my peaceful ship
Back on a meditation mission
My happiness will not grow on this rocky ground
Information Age (47/1000)
Why does he take up so much memory?
My RAM is shot
People meet with me
Just to hear the latest chapter
In my life story
Let's keep it interesting!
I remember a first young love
Holding hands in the school hallway
That was so easy
Unlike falling for a celebrity
The information gap is enormous
How much time would one need
To get to know YOU?
And would it ever feel fair?
I need to dive in and out of you at will
No use living so close to the ocean
Otherwise
Sweet Oxygen (46/1000)
You don't understand
How much strength
I've had to muster
Not to throw myself at you
And rest against you
Pulsing
Like a magnet
The hourly fight
To clear my brain of this
Murky flood
Is won only by distraction
Total immersion
In anything else
If I open the window
Just a crack
I drown again
