Maturity Equals Fear

Swirling enveloped by the sun Staring at the sky Trying to outrun The sign Of ambiguity Dancing in the snow Inhaling frigid air Wanting to know How far fantasy Is from reality? Painting on stained canvas Picturing us together Yearning to go back to the beginning Back to a clean slate To white canvas Digging for remnants of who we used to be Searching for shards of who we were I need you, like I need the sun I need you to hold my hand I need a friend Stay with me Before we disintegrate into the sea Vanish into the air Forget without a care Shackled to a nameless fear.
