there's no true lovers

there’s no true lovers
but just lovers who never change
               so at this party morning
                     we create a situation 
and you join us for the wedding
            I just want to hold closer
                I just want to whisper 
                              a song to you
                                I’m finding
                         a strange way
                      to love people












all directions from the same place 
don’t lead to the same place
  that’s why you’re a butterfly
     and I, a moth, but one family
         the abandoned lawn
            but I care about you
        you need to know your battles
   and how to choose your directions
