If You Want To Be Happy - Be.

Why keep running when all you know is stability?  You know you aren't as exciting as you'd like to think you are, or as I thought you were, or as she will.  Quit finding your escape from things you don't know.  Just because they're confusing to you doesn't mean they always have to be that way, all new things soon become old and eventually they'll exist in their places for so long that they are forgotten about.  Place your hand in your other palm and imagine it's someone else holding it.  Can you even imagine?  Just because she's never been there doesn't mean she's not waiting to.  Why are you so scared?  Insecurities could only amount to half of why you're running from what could make you happy.  But you'll run so you'll never know, you'll do what you always do.  I see you, your reactions aren't that hard to decode.  Examination?  Hardly.  You wear your frightened face just beneath the one you use in public.  I see you, it's simple, really.  Stop trailing yourself, repeating past mishaps and slips, you're only continuing in circles.  You know there's a problem - now fix it.  You're too obsessed with yourself not to.  But god damn that doesn't make it any easier to watch.  Stop running, I see you, you could be here but you're not.  Be wherever you need to be - just be.  And I wish you wouldn't but I know that'll be somewhere far from me.  It's alright, it's okay, I see you, you're not as mysterious as you think you are.

Everyone gets lost in their own fog, have to wander on with lantern dreams.
