Self-Made Boundary

Fall back and take a chance to slow time to a still,
Rushing into a decision, a conclusion before the first steps are made.
Am I doubting myself, or changing my perception?
Two steps forward, then pushed back against the wall.

White flags waving, unheard victory in the war,
Lovers collide in colour-blind kaleidoscopes.
Soul mates that met at opposite ends of the hourglass fight to get somewhere far;
Metallic taste of blood hardens against hate-spited lips,
Lost in a desert waste ground, sand covering the footprints that they’ve made.

Falling into the deep cracks within myself,
A spinning madness, paranoia is the wheel.
You hate what you have and love what you miss,
Two leaps forward, then jump across the wall.

I love the line about lovers

I love the line about lovers and the hour glass, also the one about hating what you have and loving what you miss, such a state we let oursleves live in :(


Much Love

Hindsight Is 20-20

And sometimes scary. I wonder why I did things the way I did, but I'm lucky, I have no regrets because it got me safely here to this now, this wonderful now. ~~A~~
