I know

I know that there are some things I just don't know.
Like why and how.
But I know what I feel, I know me.
I'm the sights I see, the sounds I hear, the things I learn, and the dreams I dream. I'm the tears that have made me stronger; the smiles that have made me thankful; the fears that have kept me grounded; and the hopes that have lifted me higher.
I know that as hard as it can sometimes be, there are moments that it all falls into place.

Wait

Imagine the joy of wrapping yourself up in my love, and feeling the warm glow spread through your body.
The stimulation of taking a swim through my mind, and discovering the things inside.
The comfort of speaking to my soul, in a language only we understand.
Imagine falling into me, and me into you, as we sail through life together, hand in hand.
Imagine as I imagine.
And before you give your heart to someone else...
Wait; Give me a chance to prove that with me is where you belong.
Wait; Admit that it's me, that I'm the one.
Wait; I promise it won't be in vain

Knife

Light glitters off the edge of the blade as I lift it up.
The reflection catches my eye and I'm mesmerised by the image.
Is this me? Where's the fear that I usually see?
"Do it" the voices inside scream
"But... What if..." I argue as the fear returns.
"It's time" the voices gently insist.
I nod agreeing, knowing that I have to find my own way.
My hand moves down, the faint swish joins the echoes of my silent tears of joy.
The knife, cuts through the strings that bind me, to how things used to be.
I did it. I'm free. Society no longer has a hold on me.

Acceptance

Crazy, inevitable, painful, blissful... real
