~Perspective~

stop waiting
appreciate
the mess
straight from
inside that
vibrates inside
my bones

if your
now isn't
good enough
then your
there won't
be good
enough either

were like
two messed up
peas in
the same
pod scared
to dream
but not
anymore
try again
might be
a better
day waiting

so beautiful
so tragic
nothing else
can compare
the only
thing
I can
control is
my perspective

I'm tired
of wading
through smoky
tears time
to see differently
even though
I wish it
all had been
just a
little more
clear the
present shouldn't
be shadowed
