i wish i could clip each rosebud because i wish our lives could be like theirs.
i feel the thorns and leaves beneath my feat.
the door opens because of what you have taught me
the second door opens because of you
i see yourself in everything i see
in my reflection
in my soul
in my eyes.
in my banana pancakes.
the third door opens – not because of you, but because it is already unlocked.
give me redemption
give me closure
set my soul free.
there is no me without you.
there is no you without me.
i understand
set me free.
please
