i am grinning through my teeth
my dream deserved
this is my chance to love everything
i believe in my world
it's easy
everything is shaped like me
i listen to my days talk
mistakes are allowed
i don't have to be good
i get to be honest
like a knife against a plate
my shadow
my consequences
it left me with the most curious wound
today shines like a new moon
music explodes out of itself
i am sticking to what is familiar
i am humming
rolling rounds of thunder
i hear questions
it sounds like gunfire
my heart shakes like fire
through my delicate woods
i noticed enough
i hold still
and relax in the thickness of honey
this never grew easy
but at last i grew peaceful
all winter
in this uncertain dream
