A disorganized emotional poem about love, anxiety and broken history.
With eyes that wide-
it shouldn't be a surprise that that I'm drawn inside
Aperture like the sky and there's no point in resisting
Something like this started with a light misting?
Lysergic day dreams of merging minds and gentle kissing
This thing- this thing is a child of the divine
Almost makes me skittish because my past continues lying
I'm trying to shake it and you unknowingly help
Seeing synchronicities, I remember how I felt
But this is a new time, a new frame of mind- I know what I have within
Love is a lot easier when you take out the ties of heroin

This too shall pass, it'll all come together
I've got multiple names, and a vice for every letter
Even better than those is that I knew as soon as I met her
To the canopy of trees I'm forever a debtor

I'm talking about the kind of embrace that will shatter the space-
surrounding the event- physically I meant. A real explosion.
Ego erosion. Brought on by eye contact.
These are the things that require no tact
Honest expression. Learn a new lesson- you'll stop teetering when you fall
Truly a blessing to stop second guessing, you know I'll answer when you call.
