where the wild flowers grow

My exsistance seems
so small, so dilluted among many much greater.
I trace my hands along dry sand.
Stand among the edge, where water meets the land.
I want to float upon the water,
stitch my way into another illusion.
And as my heart drifts into sweet seclusion,
I see you smile at me from distances never reached,
I crawl beyond what you saw in me.

When you grasp my veins so tightly,
when you tell me who I belong to.
My blood boils into your skin
and I remember who I am..
Who I've become with this fever,
who you tried to change with subordination.

I am,
the magnetic, energetic creation of myself.
Not needing your tears for the oceans that I
one day wish to cross.
I'll never need love,
just my fingers to trace the smudged edges of
my perception.
Who I am,
hands traced along the sand.
