Act XII: Needful Things

i was either born to resist, or to abuse compassion.
lately, i'm not sure which.
is there a middle ground?
can such stable footing exist?
maybe we're supposed to bounce back and forth.
live and let die.

i want to burn my own path in the wildlife.
do i really have to give in order to take?
can i just collect what i have learn and create a new product?
will someone be proud of me?
is there really a danger in starting such a fire?
do i have to walk this incendiary trail by myself?

how many bridges will i burn in my wake?

i can't help how much i miss you.
everyone says stay true to yourself.
stay true to those who surround you.
this is how my heart is, this is what i feel.
every single day, every single hour.
when you leaned in close to me,
what is it that you hoped you would find?

i love you, with every breath.
you whisper such melodies in my soul.
i have found the harmony.
sometimes, we sing off key.
oh god.
i have fallen for you completely.

the sad thing,
i need you tonight.
my dreams have been haunting me yet again.
will you come, and stop these images.
please?
