Small Thoughts of a Tall Girl

Thought 40

Floating

Through flames 

Drifting 

Through oceans

Flying

Through colors

I try to leave

But I can't seem

To find

My wings

I try to stay

But I walk away

Into

The next day

And if I stay

I am always wide awake

This isn't real

It's only fake

Just leave me alone

Cold to the bone

You'll leave eventually

If I hang up the phone

Dry my tears

Fuck this fear

I can't stay here

But I can't leave

I got to get out

I scream and shout

For this ghost town 

Is killing me

Too many memories

Too many dreams

Too many tears

I'm done

It's been fun

For the most part

At least

You haven't lost me

Just pushed me 

Beyond reach

 I find myself

So far

From the promises I keep

But I can promise

I'll try

To take a leap

Into your arms

As long

As you

Need.
