With The People You Meet

By: youaretheocean

...With the people you meet

watch the "strong tides"
dissolve
feel the "warm winds"
turn cold
and get ready for mental
brawl
I'm too shallow
to be deep
and I'm too irrational,
to withdraw

wet
black
top
on
bare
feet

And you're afraid to... fall
but when you've realized your
defeat
you release it all.
For the love of just a dream
is to the need of alcohol
you then learn to appreciate
the tighter knots,
I'd say the truth
BECAUSE*
you will
not

I know that was not a movie scene
stars aren't even beautiful,
they burn inside
like
every
other
secret feeling.
And the one occasion
I a m i m m u n e
your sweet illusion
showed up to soon.
So don't put trust in what you think
to be true

Couldn't you have seen?
There isn't anything
So discrete

With the people you meet...
