“When in doubt, make a fool of yourself. There is a microscopically thin line between being brilliantly creative and acting like the most gigantic idiot on earth. So what the hell, leap.” Cynthia Heimel

Risky Business

I feel you
Shake the ground I'm standing on
The cracks in the walls I built are forming effortlessly
You're finding me
Getting through to me
and the cement in the bricks of my guard hasn't dried yet.

You've found a way to get through
Who are you?
Why me?
Why the walls I built?
Why not someone else with less to conquer.
Do you know what you're getting yourself into?
I don't want you.
Yes I do.

I'm a liar
I have demons hiding on this side of the fence
You should fear the darker side of me

I fear you
Your ability to crush me
The way you'll look at me
The things you'll say to me
The way you'll love me.
I don't want you.
Yes I do.

I'm in my darkest night
But I'm safe here in the dark. . .
You're not worth the risk. . .
Please don't make me do this again. . .


You're going to be the newest death of the current "me"
Stay tuned for my ultimate surrender. . .
We all know it's inevitable.

“A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for.”- William Shedd
