ferris wheel

how can what i love

be what i fear

the one i needed the most

is the one i ran away from

i wanted to be rock solid

but instead i flow like waves

in and out

in and out and in and out and in and out

again, again, again

can’t make my mind up

do i want to stay or leave

am i making sense

will they hurt me in the end.

how do i leave this circle

of the ferris wheel going round

oh god, i wanted to jump out

but my legs were numb

my mind waited for the highs

and my heart absorbed the lows for goodnights.

t.l.
