friedcornflakes:

Fragments of a broken life

Take another look at my heart

Sit in the hallway and wait for the dark

Drown my thoughts out with pure sound

Afraid to move but hoping I’ll be found

A thousand light white ghosts in the air

Watching the snow fall, leaving the world bare

All assembled round a kitchen table

Can’t find the words but I wish I was able

To breathe without secrets for once in my life

So I close my eyes and just take a dive:

I can tell you you’re proud, tell you you’re strong

Tell that you fight for a place to belong

You’re everything I strive for, all the goals I want to reach

But with impossible perfection, you’ve created a breach

For if you don’t like the things I do

You bring me down and shatter my view

Then, you’re wild, fierce and frightening

Roaring, like clouds full of wrath and of lightening

In short, when I love you, you’re all the things they say

About a lion, but if you again hate me, you behave just the way

A real lion does.
