Hey, Self

Hey, Self Hey self, I called your number I was hoping you’d pick up But I had no luck You sent me right to voicemail It's been awhile I wanted to hear your voice Raw, messy Wavering and raspy Hey self, I scanned your face In every white truck But again I had no luck I couldn’t find you I checked the side And the rearview Then I caught a glimpse Teary-eyed rough at the edges Hey self I stare at the store window But its someone else staring back at me Its okay, to be vulnerable To say “I hurt” I’m in pain, I’m lost again I’m to be blamed You’ve been through it all Let’s sit in front of the fake fireplace So you see your true reflection The first-hand mistakes the second-hand concepts Let them burn up Let's sit together and drink this cup Wallow in the rubble Of your shattered dreams And their expectations Let's find a space For reconnection Your deepest fears and longings Lets step further in your full power Find your inner joy Learn to love yourself again Hey self, “I love you” I really want you to have this A new ground to flourish Amidst the uncertainty Happiness lies within you They can never take away We are safe either way….
