Asleep I hope to see you in another life or dream
A higher plane where people will to lower their esteem
And disregard such posturing that I could never fake
To make you feel I'm something more than a few lucky mistakes
And I know your divinity
It's as pure as eternity
When it constantly renews itself
Through rebirth of its smaller cells
Retaining wonder on a shelf named time
Lost wisdom stored on the fringe of your mind
You never lend a page of your archive
Weakness and discomfort calibrate our common being
And we miss the mark completely bridging spaces in between
Delusions of self-worth but not flawed naked grace
I've waited for exceptions but I don't even work that way
I fear a long way to go yet
My body's mismatched pieces
In a puzzling environment
To wear loud colors and cement
A piece within the throes of fashion
So you'll know the truth without ever asking
How learning to be lonely
Takes a lot of practice
