The world opened and there you were,
smiling and laughing and uttering promises
you never intended to ever keep.
You trusted in my desire to heal,
to patch and mend where broken
hearts and souls had so deadly collided.
I opened up where I had given up
and let you come in to be safe
from the howling and dangers
that lurked out there
where you played.
So now where should I look?
I've woken up and you're gone
off searching, convinced
what you seek lies beyond.
I never meant to treasure
the light that you brought
in from the outside to where
I've sat hidden within.
So now where should I look,
where should I go...
to whom should I give
the trust that's not really my own?
Back to the garden
hidden safe behind walls,
it's where I feel safe
where I've always felt I belonged.
How dare you bring glimpses
of what lives without,
how dare you spark within my soul
desires for places, faces, and dreams
I've come to seek only in my books,
within their gilded seams.
My garden seems dark now
it's flowers all wilted and fake.
I can't simply stay here,
but how can I go?
Will my legs truly carry me
whither I must roam?
Timidly stepping from the
walls of my garden, my prison,
my home, I feel the warm sun
all excited, aglow.
I must make this journey,
to where I know not
for the paths are twisted,
curling outward from me,
and I know when next i see you
my soul shall be free.

naps
nap
I need one
right now
immediately
now
I don't want to be at work
but I still want the money
can I just have a nap please?
