the key (stream of consciousness)

there was a time
when i had better words

smoother thoughts

and an unconscious energy
to be able to coax secrets
from a stone

but now
when everything counts so much

i can't seem to grab
the key to what's really you

i thought i had hope
when you drew back the shadows
and showed me your soul

but you darted away 
so quickly so quickly

dragging back insights
leaving sleepless nights

keeping my feelings at bay

you say you have the key
for me

do i dare trust you 
enough to reach out a bare hand

into infinity?

oh, if only i were a tree
that you could live within

i promise you can fly away
whenever you wish

just don't forget me
as home

(roam)
