Third Rock
Nov. 20th, 2020 06:23 pmI am the same
Not lost to time
Still the same man in this game
Victim of a victimless crime
To be seen in the context of comfort
With time, nothing but the still beating heart of rhyme
I am here asking you not only who you see
The me you have grown to know living ferociously
The one to kindly calm and kindle flames
Our hearts devoured emotions with their ways
Still to myself never imagining to see
The ways I had heard to feel you
I am not here to steal you
These are things we see in the real you
Not an image or a statement
This is not a living question
We hear ourselves under the masks and faces
We hear our thoughts shine through though unspoken
Only known to the darkest of places
Awake and alive if ever unbroken
This blood awakened by the night
Coursing through veins once held by the cold
We return home if called by such a name
This is a fantasy turned to real life alive
Begging inside to be heard
Trembling messages of hope and dreams
I will exist beside you
With no expectation
Nothing denied you
I am here and reaching for the answer to my own
I will say once more that we roam
We will find our place
Within this spinning world we truly call home
