Wish

I have a wish for you

that you stay undefined

That you live your life outside of lines

And do your best to never mind

I have a wish for you

That you never give me something to hate

Never put in a box that which was made to be free

Never tell anyone that who they are

Is not who they are meant to be

 

 

You say that you want to see me happy, well all that I need is love.  Help me know that I can be loved. 

Just allow me once to feel like I can be alright being myself and maybe, just maybe, I'll feel comfortable enough to even get better.  It's easy to love someone, just help them be who they are.

 

 

I can tell you why I'm confused.  I look at God, I look at the world. And my identity is somewhere in between.  I long for myself to be so defined as to have a clear side in this fight. I long for good to come naturally- but no, it's evil that is easy.  It's good that I long to do.  Being caught right here in the middle is my living truth, my active fallacy.   Not quite the son of perdition I was born to be, and not quite the love of God I'm told is right.

 

I'm somewhere in between in this journey, and that's where I am.  I can't reach the end before I take these steps so someone, walk with me, please.
