Something more or less than what I've become.
Anything more than I've become.
Something people walk around, talk about, but never really notice.
I step on the thin, green pieces that make up unnoticed beauty.
If I was one of those thin green pieces, impervious to every object surrounding them,
if I was a grain of dirt, or in the body of a tree, the leaf, me.
I sway and dance in the wind, my leaves fall and twirl. I stand there.
If I wasn't there, they would be gone.
They don't care that I'm the reason they have air.
They don't even have the time to spare.
Why have words when you can speak with beauty.
It's as if I was laying in bed with you, your skin, mind, and heart.
I tore it all apart.
This change in my life, is coming too fast.
Our love was too strong that we knew it couldn't last.
I wish I was something beautiful. Something that could live without pain, without love.
Something that contains importance.
Something as innocent as a dove.
I don't want to speak to show how I feel,
I want to sway in the air, I want to feel real.
To hear all your thoughts, to figure you out.
I know who you are, without a doubt.
Day after day I hear you pray, one more pain that wont go away.
The sky is black, clouds lay under the moon, as if someone took a pencil and speared them smooth.
It's quiet, everyone is asleep.
The light of the street lamp reflects onto my orange leaves.
You cover your arms with sleeves and sleeves.
You cover your skin, to show it is some sort of sin.
You come back into the yard, I know where you've been.
I watch and lay in this grass all day.
Something more or less than what I've become.
Anything more than I've become.
I wish I was a tree, I could stand there, not saying a word.
I could still be alive, but not feel one emotion.
My branches filled with dirty birds.
Something that grows and falls away.
I dream of this life, everyday.
