Loves You Back

by FireFly - Libra

Your nuclear words-
Ready to explode-
Though you’re apathetic words-
Says you’ve done it all before?-

I don’t know if-
I can explain-
But I’m keeping this life-
As fresh and new as I can-
I hope at any age-
I still can explore-
I wasn’t born in this wild world-
So I could go bland-

Fuck it-
I breathe in what I can-
Feel and taste its living-
I’m open arms-
But don’t fight me-
I don’t care enough-
To be you’re enemy-

I’ve withered too-
But I’m over that-
I’m a friend-
A brother-
A lover-
This is where I stand-

I’ve dragged this vacation out as far I can-
So I could escape-
With one moment-
With one second-
Of your face in my mind-
I’ve packed bags-
To leave alone-
On the road to you-
Fight me as you will-
Others will come-
It’s my time now-
But I’m OK-
If I don’t see you-
On the way-
I love this life-

I’ve learn to love-
What loves me back-
I know that’s selfish-
But I’m not ashamed-
