release

sometimes i have these things
these things that want to escape
escape and run away and change the world
and feel and breathe and live
they want to fall like the rain or dance like the wind
occasionally i want to set them free
i want to see what they can do

see what they have in store and release them along with their potential
but then fear strikes inside
then just thinking about the fear striking makes it strike all over again
almost like a big flash saying "don't let others see who you truly are"
then i'm left just sitting here
thinking, wondering, hoping, wishing

just like these things
these things that are thousands and hundreds and just one
because there are so many possibilities
reckless, hopeless, adoring, and lovely

they are like watching a love note floating through the sky
filled with things too beautiful to fully accept
not knowing where it will go, where it will land, who it will meet
others wishing they could still hold it
but glad that they still have it in their hearts and memory for forever

sometimes i have these things
these things that I want to let escape
escape and run away and change the world
and feel and breathe and live...
