i'm melting
melting into myself
into my head
what's real?
the reality that you share?
the reality that you perceive?
the depth of the ocean
the depth of your mind
melting together.
you see life is a game. a game that we all play. and no one knows the rules.
but you that's the thing about this game. that there are no rules.
fine lines
between
the rules of social interaction.
the rules of yourself.
fine lines
between
the rules
forced
upon you
melting together in a pool of layers
by a society and a thought, an ideal, that if i may, that you and i and they never agreed or signed up for.
a set of rules to a game that everyone is playing
i choose not to play the same game. i've played it. i've seen how it ends.
i'm not three and this isn't candyland. this is my life.
everything is layers it all melts together. fight it. embrace it. own it. deny it. own it again.
we keep coming back to the beginning of not being sure.
we can open up our own minds and be inside ourselves thinking, i've got a handle on this.
but we don't and we never will.
that's why we melt until we're clear.
