i won't mind...

flames and smoke climbed out of every window
and disappeared with everything that i held dear
i shed not a single tear
for the things that i didn't need
because i knew.
i knew i was finally free.

because all i can see is where else i can be when i'm at home.
and there on the street, there are so many possibilities to not be alone.


it's like i suddenly realized you were walking up every step with me, holding my hand, turning me to hold a gaze every minute you could. you reached the floor, not that it looked different, but i think you knew i knew it was time. we opened the window, and looked outside. hm, it stopped snowing. so this is it, huh? he'll be letting me go, and he'll burn inside. why is he even here in the first place? you pull me into you, than.. and kiss me hard, that familiar taste settling on my lips once again. i than realize why you exist along side me. i get you, you get me. we just get it. you take your leap of faith. and stare up at me, as i hardly hesitate and without any rational thinking, make mine. free. free. you could run any which way, but you grab my hand, and hold it tight. it begins to rain. rain in february. you hate it, i love it. but we still smile, and continue along, in absolutely no direction whatsoever. we'll skip along the sidewalks until we find our way.


and i know maybe your heart belongs to someone you've already met.
but one day you will be loved.
you'll jump out that window.
and nothing will be as clear as that moment.
