The Infinite We

Nothing left for me to say I'm a girl and I am gay Nothing left for me to find Born a boy believing blind Sober..alone..connecting the dots Bittersweet thoughts are all that I got Suicide mixed with dashes of hope Stories I wrote when I couldn't cope Oh, carry me through, these visions of you Echoes of her in the planes out of view Holding our hands, together we stand She smiles back at me with her toes in the sand The waves crashing in like a tranquil melody Thinking of me in the tsunamis at sea The hell that I feel with sober clarity She smiles back at me, saying "I will live free" ..."so you can finally see"... The waves crash on me like I'm standing with her The moment retreats like the tide, in a blur Connected out there, every you and every me The universes fade into infinite horizons of "we" Nothing else to be We'll always be free And we will simply be Together we're free
