friends

Lunar orbital spiraled out of control,

I revolved around you.

I really lost myself for a while,

but now things aren't so blue.

I'm finding my own place in the solar system,

big bang theory blowing reality to bits.

Life was absorbed by a black hole,

my personality on the fritz.

Anxiety exploding in my chest,

I was a lost moon until

I realized I could be someone else's sun.

I started to stay lit.

Everything has a purpose, point to the pain,

I found myself at the end of that dark narrow road.

There was a light at the end of the tunnel,

somewhere through the haze of smoke.

Shining brighter than I ever have before,

confident beyond explanation,

on a roller coaster that only goes up--

now everything about me bubbles flirtation.
