Our Words

Our words betray us
That's what we have in common: we lay bare hidden wounds
Bring to light our shame
Let it all come apart - your protective layer
Too bad it's all for naught, we let ourselves off the hook
Abandon efforts to truly shed this cancer
I will walk beside you but the footsteps fade and I can't see you
All that's left is the path back
Seal it all back up and forget about it
We etch optimistically letters formed and erased quickly
Ephemeral hibernation - that's what we have in common
Stay deep and tucked away feign positivity
We can grace the moon
Shoot down arrows toward fallen foes
We can ram hearts to the ground
Let persistence harden our skin
Define happiness and forget its name
Unset it back and try again
Fire signals that we don't even understand
