~Pursuit~

the minute
you struggle
is when
you
fail

overthinking mess
a double
mirror of
doubt smiling
when you
don't believe
yourself

I'm sunshine
mixed with
a hurricane
cards on
the table
don't give
up on
me

but nothing's
lost now
really pllaying
with fire
sleep with
my lights
on discovering
what's brand
new

cold silence
circles in
the fog
this is just
a toy
shop buy
a bag
of balloons
with the
money we
got

set them
free at the
break of
dawn until
one by
one they
were gone
confetti in
the electric
vanishing blue

the horn
has sounded
the pursuit
is on
dare to
open your
heart a
little unsteady
sugar on
silent lips
