brave cartographer

even once everything is charted out

will you still be content with exploring me?


I'm too shy to ever take a photo of you

I put faith in my mind, I put great faith in it


I broke into the house I grew up in as a child

Just to see if my body remembered how to navigate the backyard


A bunch of young adults now occupy the home

This place is neglected and overgrown


You stuck a flag on my bare, empty neck 

Proof of existence


I am an unstable body of land

Everyday a seismic activity every other day torrential weather 


You are a brave cartographer

And when the sun sets you will sail to brave the seas once more


The flag is raised

I want to say that whatever happens from here on out is my fault I will never stop running I will never stop being scared I will never stop being paranoid I will never stop feeling like I'm never enough For you, for you, for you, for anyone, for myself I'm sorry for staying in my corner and refusing to face you I'm sorry for choosing to stay miserable I know better than this I don't know if *I'm* better than this It's hard to believe that we live under the same sky Because you don't see those same stars that I see right now I wear my summer clothes in the winter You wear your winter clothes in the summer I'm moving away forever one day But don't hold me to that I only write these things so I can Understand my feelings Please understand my feelings I'm sorry for only ever thinking about my own feelings  These leaves will change colour next season And the next, and the next, and the next I'm so sorry for being unfair I'm so sorry for projec...
