Loose

I can imagine you Dancing at the Paradise Lounge, Where drinks swim through And guide loose connections. I can imagine those days By the water, splashing puddles And kicking sand. The setting sun's rays Touch lightly and deeply. I can imagine Anything I want And write it down. I can punch these keys Like I can punch walls And never find an answer. Life in a daydream Consists of a reality Less tender than flesh, Where the world may be made sharper For internal saviors, Where love is lighter, less likely To have me crumbling and bumping into walls With random outbursts and overbearing emotions That supersede my conscience. In a world where I am in control, I find the time to make things right Yet wake up wrong In a world less fortunate, Where the ocean's undertow Crawls up to our toes And pulls the sand away.
