brevity.

give me a galaxy of space,
but never let me go.
make promises you'll never keep
to ears who'll never know.

you could make hats with those eyes,
did i tell you?
bring me back to wonderland.
i've only asked entire worlds,
and maybe that's too much.
could i hold them, if i won?
yes, maybe that's too much.

i've been searching through
the sand at night, to find
the line you drew.
if a line were never drawn,
where does that leave you?

i wouldn't dare ask.


making peace with empty towns,
and flooded, all the same.
instigation, back away,
would you know my name?
this is not a waiting game,
it's never been that hard.
a game of truth,
without the dare,
will never get you far.

we are not the same.
