day 51

HERE
is a new home I am willing to break in.


"setting fire to our insides for fun"
feel the passion
feel it burst the words out of our lungs
it's hot in here
it's burning
it's a touch i will remember
the pain
the struggle to be free of flame
stopping to the drop and roll
listening to the rock and roll in
busy toronto subways

they're all walking without you
you don't need to join them
they don't know your name yet
but you like it this way


you like the freedom to be whoever you choose to  be today
you wake up and want to swim
want to fly in new air
breathe it in
be this change
be the love of your own life
this is you
this is your time


this is how hot your flame is
how long it will keep you warm
remember there is life within your chest
and with every song sung
you are revived
day after day after day
you are alive
you are living
you are loving
you are love
to a stranger
to a stranger's smirk
turn stranger's day into heaven

you're there
