Maybe Connected

you seem to think
i have something to say
but that's not how it works sometimes.
just let me speak nonsense
and i'll whisper those nothings
until you're a million miles away too

hold me close in your brutal arms --
they hold so much power and yet such restraint!
their range of intensity and purpose impresses me
at the same time that it scares me to death.

i can't get away
but don't think that i want to
i'm scared by how much that i need you
i'm afraid i can't handle
the thought that you might one day
want to walk out of my life

I figured I might as well ignore the dictionary and make my own...flightless birds have always intrigued me, anyhow.
