You and I we've come to terms
We've both let go
We've lived and learned
It's bittersweet talking to you
Still occasionally you show up in my mind
In my dreams, in my thoughts
In my poems and rhymes
In my dream last night
We weren't together
In my dream we both realized
We weren't meant for forever
I shed some tears, you held my face
I hugged you and my heart it raced
Because I thought man this is crazy
I ran away to the outside and you chased me
Not to hold me or keep me with you
But to keep me from doing things that I shouldn't do
I almost walked away with strangers
Because in my dream I didn't care about the danger
I just wanted to get away
To breath and not think about the day
Then I saw my best friend around the corner
He could see me but he acted just like a foreigner
He didn't say hello, he didn't wave at me
He acted like I was a stranger
So I again began to flee
I ran into rushing water
I jumped and dived in deep
Hiding from the rest of the world
Because under water noone else can see
The tears spilling from my eyes
Or hear the sound made by my emotion filled cries
As I swam I kept my eyes open
I saw sculptures of arms
Coming from a floor like the ocean
They reached out, their fingers moving, palms open
I felt them brush against me
But I kept swimming
Working against the flow and the motion
Of the water, it moved like a witch stirring potion
I thought of you I thought of the years
I thought of the old and the newly found fears
I'm afraid my new love might leave me
Because what if he doesn't think I'm as great or as lovely
As he thought when he could kiss and could hug me
These fears are small because I want to trust him
They stay in the back of my mind
Because I'd rather not worry I'd rather just love him
He's given me no reason to feel this way
So I'll keep going swimming against each wave
Let the water rush through and wash away
The old fears with the new
I'll love another day

I know this poem probably sounds kinda weird but lol part of this poem was telling about a dream I had so ;P don't be confused by the arm sculptures in the water and me trying to walk away with strangers... I would never do that lol
