Play

I can play the games others play 

If I want to 

But I don’t want to.

Where would it take me? 

No place I really want to go 

I want to walk a path no one has walked

I want to see you in light and in darkness

I want to see the part of you that no one is willing to look at.

I won’t be repelled-

I won’t walk away-

I am not afraid-

So if I play the games that other people play-

Then what is real?

I’m not here to live someone else’s reality 

I’m here to live mine.
