You Are My Silver Lining
You are my silver lining
Do you remember the days we left earth? How easy it was to escape the margins of reality? We drifted from expectations and obligation. It was just us, hand in hand, soaring above all others destined to make it to the star and spend the day resting on clouds. Our imagination propelled us through experiences surpassing the existence of time.
Time then crept up, like the rising of the morning sun over the unsuspecting horizon. Each passing second became a morsel bogging down our airy lifestyle until the years bound us to reality. Our wings were clipped and no longer could we soar. Instead we drifted. You to your destination and me to mine. However, all I need is a brief glimpse at the sky to remind me of the castle we had built upon the clouds on the days we left earth.

Her feet are firmly planted on the ground yet her soul soars above possibility.
Naivety
Every time I turn and walk away my heart thumps against my rib cage and my eyebrows automatically stitch together trying to quell the tears. However, they do not fall. They do not fall because I know there are certain amount of steps I will take before yours begin to parallel my own. This mentality is not preparing me for the day when my steps are disregarded. I take for granted the amount of times you follow because I don't deserve it anymore. In all honesty you deserve to create your own path and shouldn't be obligated to follow mine. Please, run away.
Non, je ne regrette rien.

A question from my childhood
"On life's road the past is behind you, just keep moving forward."
What if I stopped? What if I turned to my right causing my path to go on a tangent? Where am I going then? I've always wondered this. There's always this expectation of straight and narrow but never an explanation of what happens when it's not followed. Do I go back and keep going forward? What I no longer like the future road and decide on a detour? Don't really know what this is for. Just converting my thoughts to typed words.
