~Promise~

Rilke said it
"perhaps the
dragons in
our lives
are only
princesses wanting
to see,
just once,
with loyalty
and courage, perhaps
frightens us
in our deepest essense,
something helpless
that wants our love"

every promise
did't wort out
like it
was planned
I'm so
wrapped up
let me
go
just relax
let me
take all
the weight

it's hard
to know
what you'll become
if you
give up

this is
a memory
I can
use trapped
in a state
between midnight
and dawning
a place
of no
cosequence
the future
opened wide
escape sound
and gravity
