this is a way of forcing myself to be open about where i'm at while giving myself a forum for writing that isn't a pen and pencil journal for myself. i've always been best able to express myself in writing..so i guess this is a little bit of me

unlocking
it's not that you hold the key to my heart
it's so much more
you held the key to my life?
there is a metal chest
i didn't know it was there
but apparently it's where i had put everything
i couldn't face
or that wasn't allowed to be in me
and while we were hanging out
nonchalantly you took out a key
you had in your pocket
for who knows how long
and you unlocked it
yeah
pandora has nothing on this
in a second, with a glance, all the ghosts i had
forgotten
flooded the room and asked me to dance
entranced, intoxicated, unbound and undone
i was carried in all directions at once and was at home
in myself
like a cheshire cat
your smile made it magic
and it all seemed so healing, even if slightly iratic
but now, you're far away
and i'm left only with the other things
that were revealed that day
all of the ghosts
even a few demons
the beautiful witches that i couldn't burn
all the unlived moments
and you, all these years, with them hidden
no wonder you know me so well
at least all of my secrets unspoken
you are equally that much a part of me.
but somehow that night,
as all of my ghosts flooded me
in that very second
you too
were set free!
