~Wonder~

I'm trying
to see
the stars fade in
the morning
crushed velvet
in the
quiet corners
of favorite moments

what's the
point of
falling grace?
just don't
turn away

clouds will
always cloud
my view
if you don't
let go
you'll never
know can't
stand in
the rain
and stay dry

I'm waiting
for my 
breakthrough
my heartbeat
caught up
in the
in between
perfect in
the inperfection

heart falls
and beats
like fire
and rainfall
at the
same time

remember
I'm the
one you
keep your
stories for
 glass houses
throw no
stones
truth matters
but not
if no one
chooses to
believe it

I won't
go along
to get
along
look at
my backbone

there is
always wonder
