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.
