So close yet so far away
a caged bird sings everyday.
Masochistic it would seem
when I see you the harder I dream
Controlled chaos my heart falls to
lack of control is now entropy.

Breathe out to breathe you in
feel the same yet feel differently
I walk the road of chaos and bliss
you are the love I'd love to dismiss

Walked in on the edge of fall
left me with feelings of winter thaw
yearnings of another season
where difference is not disconcerting
though warmer days you still will remain

Understanding no price will provide
confidence containing pend up pride
no answers no reasons why
no matter the difference this bird will fly
