and sometimes

sometimes holes are filled
sometimes the light comes from within, flowing up and out
sometimes it stops time for you, and the beauty in the quiet can emerge
sometimes you give energy to those around you, letting them be there for you
sometimes these same hands grab you so that you stand on solid ground
sometimes this dimension has everything you need
sometimes...
sometimes...

Mean

I can make you hate me
Just give me a bit more time
You will laugh that you ever thought
to one day want to be mine

I can make you hate me
Watch me laugh at you!
Watch me point my finger
and make fun of everything you do!

I can whine like a baby
And throw in your face your words!
I can act so superficial
You will wonder what you heard

You will place a hand to your brow
and sigh in relief
I can make you so very glad
That you were made to leave

I can make you hate me
Just wait and see
And a distant forgetful person
Will be the easiest thing to be

So you just watch me do it
Become irritating and mean
Just wait a little while
And your feelings will wipe clean

I can make you hate me
You just wait and see.

Break Camp

Get away
Leave me alone
Once I know
You called me home

You walked inside
You turned on lights
Gave sunshine to my days
Gave stars to my nights
